Burundi to play its first AFCON in Egypt

Published:

This Total Africa Cup Of Nations Egypt 2019 will be played on the sign of renewal with the participation of new national teams from the continent. The Intamba Mu Rugamba in front of their home crowd in Bujumbura held the Gabon Panthers in check (1-1). The return of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang did not change anything. The Burundian hero of the day is Cédric Amissi, who scored the first goal of the match. The Burundians scared themselves by scoring an own goal in stoppage time by Omar Ngandu. Daniel Cousin's players are falling from very high ground and they will have to rebuild a team back home in Libreville. Burundi finishes second in Group C, behind Mali
