Guinea secured a dramatic last-minute victory against Equatorial Guinea in the CAF Africa Cup of Nations, setting two new records that will be remembered in the tournament’s history books.

The defining moment of the match came from Mohamed Bayo, who secured victory for Guinea with an extraordinary goal at the 97th minute and 38 seconds mark. 

Bayo’s late strike not only propelled Guinea to a 1-0 win over Equatorial Guinea but also etched his name into the records as the scorer of the latest winning goal ever in a knockout game at the CAF Africa Cup of Nations. 

The dramatic nature of Bayo’s goal undoubtedly left an indelible mark on the tournament’s rich history.

The triumph for Guinea represents a historic breakthrough for the Syli National, marking the first time in their history that they have won a knockout game at the Africa Cup of Nations. 

After six previous attempts that ended in disappointment, Guinea finally tasted success in a knockout-stage encounter. 

The significance of this victory extends beyond the immediate tournament, symbolising a notable achievement for Guinea in their journey through African football.

Guinea’s record-breaking performance underscores the unpredictable and historic nature of football on the continental stage.

 As the CAF Africa Cup of Nations continues to unfold, the excitement and drama generated by such remarkable feats contribute to the tournament’s legacy and captivate the footballing world.
