BURKINA FASO SET TO PLAY SENEGAL IN AFCON 2021 SEMI-FINAL

The Stallions of Burkina Faso will look to create an upset when they take on the Senegal side in their semi-final clash at the Ahmadou Ahidjo Stadium in Yaounde today.

Kamou Malo’s side started the competition with a 2-1 defeat to hosts Cameroon, but have since recovered and are targeting a place in Sundays final at the Olembe Stadium.

This will be the Stallions third appearance in the semis in the past nine years.
Meanwhile, the Burkinabes presence at the sharp end of the tournament has an even greater significance given the countrys recent military coup, as explained by coach Kamou Malo.
