The commencement of the final group matches at the 2013 UEMOA Tournament sees Group A in action this Wednesday, with significant stakes at play between Burkina Faso, Mali, and Ivory Coast. Togo, having suffered two defeats and a resounding loss against Burkina Faso, has already been eliminated and now aims to salvage its honor.
Burkina Faso holds the advantage with 4 points and a goal differential of +4. The Stallions are set to face Ivory Coast, who were unexpectedly defeated by Mali 0-1 in the previous round. Both teams are in dire need of a victory to secure a spot in the final, as per the competition regulations, which dictate that only the group leaders progress to the final.
Mali, buoyed by their triumph over Ivory Coast, will seek to consolidate their position by defeating Togo, who find themselves out of contention.
Match Schedule:
- 3:30 p.m.: Mali vs. Togo
- Burkina Faso vs. Ivory Coast
