[The Wall Is Undefeated!]

Mauritania 2 - 3 Angola

Lions of Chinguetti tried to prey on the Palancas Negras (Black Sable antelopes) instead the big cats got impaled on the horns.

This feels like two decades of Mali having a strong midfield and lack of options at striker.

[The Wall Is Undefeated!]

Tunisia 1 - 1 Mali

The birds of prey had each other in their sights. The Eagles of Carthage and The Eagles fought and feathers flew. Both the birds of prey fly back to their hotel in California.

Facts. Mali has consistently produced top CMs and CDMs but the business end of the pitch is a different story.

[phcitywarrior]

2.7 goals per game at this AFCON so far. 2021 and 2019 were like 1.9 goals per game.

This is so far one of the highest scoring AFCONs
