CAN 2021 / Gr. B: Burkina-Uganda, the shock!
Group B could know its first qualifier at the next CAN 2021, on March 24. Uganda as well as Burkina Faso who are competing, are both in a good position to validate the first ticket of this group.
The 5 th and penultimate day of group B will be explosive . Uganda, 2 nd with 7 points, welcomes the Burkinabè leader (8 points). Two selections vying for the first ticket for qualifying for CAN 2021. If the Cranes succeed in winning, they will almost qualify for the next continental meeting. In the first leg, the two teams had drawn a white draw.
But, the Stallions of Burkina know that one point could be enough for them. In case of disappointment in Kampala, they will then have to wait until the last day to dominate South Sudan and compost their ticket in the process.
Malawi (4 pts) has not said its last word in this pool. However, you first have to win your two matches and hope for a defeat for Uganda against Burkina Faso .
