 Bayo's last-gasp sends Guinea to AFCON quarter-finals


Mohamed Bayo scored a last-gasp as Guinea beat 10-man Equatorial Guinea 1-0 to reach the quarter-finals of the African Cup of Nations (AFCON)

Bayo scored in the last minute of added time. He latched on to a brilliant cross and got his head on the ball to put it inside the right post.

Emilio Nsue missed a penalty that would have given Equatorial Guinea the lead in the 69th minute shortly after Federico Bikoro was sent off for a horrible challenge on a Guinean player.

He failed to score from the penalty spot as his shot only hit the right post.

Earlier, Morgan Guilavogui latched onto a short pass from Bayo inside the box, but clipped his shot high over the bar.

In the 82nd minute, Jesus Owono pulled off a fantastic save. Serhou Guirassy attempted to head home after a precise cross into the box. He aimed his header towards the top of the net, but the effort was kept out.

Seven minutes into added time, Guirassy received a brilliant pass and found himself one-on-one with Jesus Owono, who reacted superbly to stop him.
