@AHT_YssY It’s only fair that the host win the 3rd place playoff, but Burkina Faso pulled a howler in this game. Bottling a 3 nil lead with less than 20 minutes remaining on the clock. Good 70 minutes, but awful last 20 minutes. Congrats to the hosts, Cameroon #AFCON2021

Overall, Great game from Burkina Faso but they lowered their guard which Aboubakar smuggled into their defense to take the food from their mouth!#AfconwithBonteh
