Guinea back in cup hunt as Morocco falter

GUINEA are back in the hunt for a place in the last eight of the Africa Cup of Nations after a dramatic 3-2 win over Morocco yesterday.

This was a must-win game for Robert Nouzaret’s men after losing their Group A opener to Ghana, and they duly pulled it off with goals from captain Pascal Feindouno, who got a double, and Ismael Bangoura.

Seconds after his second goal, Feindouno celebrated by kicking out at Morocco’s Amin al-Erbate to earn the Saint Etienne striker the dubious distinction of becoming the first player be sent off in the tournament.
