Mali v Ivory Coast AFCON - Live coverage as Ivory Coast pull off massive win

Ivory Coast pulled off an astonishing extra-time comeback win despite being a man down as they beat Mali 2-1 on Saturday evening.

The hosts needed a penalty shootout to get past Senegal in their first-round knockout match, while Mali beat Burkina Faso 2-1.

The first half was marked by chaos as Sikou Niakate had a penalty appeal for handball turned down as he was offside, before Odilon Kossouna conceded one for a foul on Lassine Sinayoko, only for Adama Traore to miss.

Just before half-time, Sinayoko brought another desperate foul from the Kossouno, who saw red.

As the weakened side tired, Nene found room to fire in a brilliant strike from 30 yards out to take the lead, but with the game almost over, Simon Adingra prodded home an injury-time equaliser.

With no breakthrough in extra time the match seemed to be set for penalties before a knockout blow from Oumar Diakite in extra-time added time, and was sent off for taking his shirt off in the celebrations.

Might have been sent off for taking his shirt, and now there's a huge stramash on the pitch as the two sides come togehter.

The free kick is cleared and it comes out, it's fired into the box and Diakite turns it into the net for a massive comeback!

A huge cry from the crowd as Adingra gets a set piece.

Yet again, more time wasted. We'll be going to penalties I imagine.

With a decent move on the cards, Sissoko's terrible pass sends it out for a throw. Mali's attitude has fallen away.

From the same position as his goal it goes well over. Fofana takes a chance to claim cramp in goal.

He grabs the corner and goes to ground to waste time.

A low cross across the six-yard box from Nene is turned in towards goal by Boly, but it inches wide and it's a corner for Mali.

15 minutes of open play left.

We'll be back in a few minutes.

But it's straight at the keeper.

Mali bring on Sissoko, Samassekou is off. A forward on for a midfielder

He meets it well but he fires the header over the bar.

A chance for Mali to get back on top.

Singo's cross is perfect for the striker but he thunders his header against the woodwork.

He took a palm to the face and needs a minute to shake it off.

Perhaps unsurprisingly the players are not playing at full pace after that frantic end to normal time.
