Equatorial Guinea 0-1 Guinea: AFCON drama with 98th-minute Mohamed Bayo winner after Emilio Nsue penalty miss

Mohamed Bayo scored a 98th-minute winner to send Guinea into the quarter-finals of the Africa Cup of Nations.

Extra-time time beckoned Abidjan before Bayo powered home a header to break Equatorial Guinea hearts.

Equatorial Guinea had to play most of the second half with 10 men and missed a penalty when AFCON top scorer Emilio Nsue hit the post from the spot.

They looked set to force an extra 30 minutes but Bayo struck with the last kick of the game to book Guinea a spot in the quarter-final, where they will play either Egypt or DR Congo.

Equatorial Guinea were reduced to 10 men early in the second half when Federico Bikoro was shown a straight red card after catching Bayo in the ribcage with a high boot.

UNBELIEVABLE! 🤯
