Pologne 2019
Les Aiglons font tomber l'Albiceleste (2-2, 4-5 tab)
04 juin 2019
- Le Mali élimine l'Argentine en huitième de finale
- Incroyable scénario à rebondissements
- Les Aiglons affronteront l'Italie en quart
Le Sénégal ne sera pas le seul représentant africain des quarts de finales de Pologne 2019 avec l'incroyable victoire aux tirs au but du Mali contre l'Argentine, ce mardi à Bielsko-Biala, après une égalisation malienne à la dernière minute en prolongation.
Les Argentins avaient rapidement pris leurs aises dans ce huitième de finale avec leur jeu de passe et ont percé le mur malien à plusieurs reprises. Mais ces occasions manquées permettaient aux Aiglons de prendre confiance et d'équilibrer le rapport de force en plaçant quelques piques à leur tour, notamment par leur attaquant phare Sekou Koita.
Les filets tremblaient enfin après la pause, d'abord grâce à l'opportunisme de Adolfo Gaich (49') puis sur l'envol d'Abdoulaye Diaby (67') qui permettait aux champions d'Afrique d'aller en prolongation. Mais la joie fut de courte durée puisque ce même Diaby déviait le tir puissant d'Ezequiel Barco dans ses cages quelques secondes après la reprise (91').
Le miracle malien intervint sur un coup franc joué avec malice par Koita vers Boubacar Konte, juste à temps pour arracher les tirs au but où l'arrêt de Youssouf Koita sur la tentative de Tomas Chancalay a suffi au bonheur des Africains, qui affronteront l'Italie en quart le 7 juin à Tichy.
