Guinea has never won a knockout match in an African Cup of Nations. Victory acquired in the last seconds of added time has all the makings of a historic qualification for the national Syli.
Guinea will face DR Congo, victorious on penalties over Egypt, on Friday for a place in the semi-final. “If we can take the cup, we will take it,” assured coach Kaba Diawara at a press conference after the 1-0 victory against Equatorial Guinea.
