CAN 2013 - Burkina Faso 1 - 0 Togo by warrant

The lowly Stallions who had last made it to the semi-finals as hosts of the 1998 Africa Cup of Nations continued their impressive march into the quarter-finals against Togo as Jonathan Pitroipa turned a corner into goal in the 105th minute.

Pitroipa, the Rennes winger was not the only hero. Custodian Daouda Diakité came up empty handed as Emmanuel Adebayor got to a cross first and with his header bouncing ominously towards an empty net, Saidou Mady Panandetiguiri effected a goal line save. Adebayor protested but the ball clearly did not break the plane.
