Mali, Tunisia Share The Spoils

Hamza Rafia’s first-half strike gave 2004 champions Tunisia their first point at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations courtesy of a draw against Mali.

Midfielder Rafia arrived first to send Ali Abdi’s cross squirming in via goalkeeper Djigui Diarra’s body.

Mali had gone ahead through Lassine Sinayoko’s drilled opener and are on the brink of reaching the last 16.

Kamory Doumbia almost restored the Eagles’ lead six minutes after the break, stabbing a shot narrowly wide.

Topping the group with 4 points, Mali is almost through to the knockout stages and will have to confirm its group standing or maintain its qualification in the largely playable final group game against Namibia.
