:Musa Barrow scored a 71st-minute winner as Gambia continued their giant killing spree at the Africa Cup of Nations by pulling off an upset 1-0 win over Guinea in Bafoussam on Monday to advance to the quarter-finals.

Debutants The Gambia booked their place in the quarter-finals at the Africa Cup of Nations as Musa Barrow's goal gave them a 1-0 victory over Guinea.
There was a genuine moment of fear in the first week of the Africa Cup of Nations that the tournament was going to be something of a let-down. This year’s extravaganza in Cameroon seemed to have more eyes on it that usual from the watching world, with wider interest coming from Europe in particular to see the ever-growing number of African players at European clubs going back home to represent their nations.
This year’s Africa Cup of Nations has certainly not been short on surprises and amid the shock results and unexpected incidents, there are the wonderful stores of the supposed minnows upsetting their more high-profile counterparts to make it through to the knockout stages.

Comoros goalkeeper Ali Ahamada has tested negative for Covid-19, and could now start their Africa Cup of Nations last-16 tie against Cameroon on Monday.
