90'+3

And that's it! Great work from Congo to qualify - what a bizarre underperformance throughout the tournament from Burkina Faso. This match was fairly poor but the last ten minutes were properly dramatic. Thanks for your company this evening.
90'+2
Good save from Sanou this time as the shot across goal takes a tiny deflection and he tips that out for a corner.
-
Free kick from Traore A was well-taken and that bounced off the underside of the woodwork!
90'
And Burkina hit the bar!

89'
What a strange few minutes after a match that's been fairly short on incident.
-
Sanou came out to punch, and all he did was Superman-style across the air, helping the ball to rebound into the net.
87'

GOAL! Oh, except not! What a hash from the goalkeeper.
-
Congo lost possession, and Ouedraogo's ball in from the right reached Bance at the far post, and his awkward finish gives Burkina a chance.
86'
GOAL! And substitute Bance does the apparently impossible!
83'
Good shot from Bertrand Traore - from range, and takes a deflection over the bar. The corner is hideous.
82'

The goalkeeper drops it! Traore gets that into the net, but the flag is up for offside against Ouedrago on the far side. Just to be on the safe side, Mafoumbi stays on the ground as if he's hurt.
81'
Alain Traore shapes to take a Burkina free kick, about ten yards outside the box, to the right.
78'
Skimming just wide from Bertrand Traore, once again a shot crawling past the far post.
76'
Not a good free kick - it hits the wall and then eventually trickles out for another long goal kick.
75'
Free kick to Congo as Litsingi is pushed over by Koffi.
74'
Dore is shoved over in the box - and had he been given onside, that would probably have been a penalty. But he was flagged off, so it wasn't. Although he wasn't off, so it should have been. If you follow.
72'
Snap shot from Ndinga on the edge of the box and Sanou does really well to get down quickly to hold that.
68'
Dore and Douniama confuse each other, but Bertrand Traore is taking no chances and concedes a throw.
66'
More corners for Burkina. Nothing coming from them except more corners, an infinity of corners, a Russian doll procession of corners.
