Match 44
Mali vs Equatorial Guinea 0:0
REPORT
(BBC Sport)
Goalkeeper Jesus Owono was Equatorial Guinea's hero as they shocked Mali in a penalty shootout to reach the quarter-finals of the Africa Cup of Nations.
Owono, 20, saved twice in the shootout to help them go through 6:5 on spot-kicks after a 0:0 draw.
Initially, the referee indicated the decisive save from Falaye Sacko's effort needed to be retaken, but a VAR check showed Owono's foot was still on the line.
Equatorial Guinea play Senegal next.
