GROUP 4, week6:
June 17, 1605 GMT Burkina
Faso - Algeria 1:0 *Burkina Faso qualified
Before: Burkina Faso
need one point to qualify. Algeria is already qualified.
1st half:
-Burkina Faso in green,
Algeria in white. The stadium is packed, bands are playing. Will the second
string Algerian squad really be able to spoil the party? There is one positive
aspect in arriving with substitutes: they will have something to prove.
But most often a so much changed squad does not work.
-('7) the Burkinabé
have begun attacking. Now a first opportunity after a corner.
-('11) some first Algerian
counter attacks
-('21) long range attempt
by Burkina Faso #16, wide
-('28) huge opportunity
for Burkina Faso but two attempts get blocked by defenders from crossing
the line
-('30) after an injury timeout
the insuing corner results in another long range attempt wide
-('39) a defended ball
bounces to the feet of #2 Seydou Traoré who does not hesitate and
unleashes an acrobatic shot into the net from 12 meters - 1:0
-('40) Algerians answer
with an opportunity ut the Burkinabé keeper seizes the diagonal
shot
-('41) Burkina Faso: a free
kick cross from the left hand side takes a curve and turns on the goal.
The Algerian keeper makes no mistake and wipes it over the bar
-('injury time) Algerian
shot hits the goalpost
2nd half:
-(because of several parallel
matches some sction might be missing)
-('47) Burkina Faso hit
goalpost with short range header
-('49) both with opportunities
-Burkina Faso now play
some very slow passages, circling the ball around among defenders, then
long balls into attack
-concentration now on
the parallel Tunisia-Kenya match as long as Burkina Faso look quite comfortable
with their lead
