End of the match:
90'
Three more minutes will be played. Burundi has already cooled off the game and is just waiting for the clock to tick down and the final whistle to blow. The home team was severely lacking in finishing today.
86'
Time is ticking by, and we don't believe the game will lead to the decision to add more. Considering the deficit, Burundi continues to attack, looking for a sixth goal.
82'
Burundi continues to pressure their opponent's exit and wants to smother them again. They've revived and are close to scoring. The visitors can't maintain their intensity and pace.
78'
Burundi had the sixth, after a header that grazed the visiting goalkeeper. The home side, each time they entered the penalty area, did so with superiority and authority.
74'
Seychelles had a few minutes of ball control, controlled the action, and are closing in on extra time. Burundi relaxed and decided to stop attacking. They're in their comfort zone!
🤩
66'
Burundi continues to strive for more goals and to extend its lead. Physically, the difference between the two teams has also been noticeable. The result, in our opinion, is rather short; this game could use one or two more goals.
Let's review one of today's goals:

57'
The fifth goal arrived. The little hand! ✋. A great goal by Jean Claude Girumugisha, a player for Al-Hilal in the Sudanese Professional League. Burundi crushed their opponents today, showing no mercy.
53'
The locals go for more, continue to recover the ball very easy, find spaces, several go to accompany the plays and there is a lot of time for how badly the visiting team is playing. You can pass it along to Seeychelles.
49'
GOOOAL! SCORE THE WIN! BURUNDI’S GOOOAL!
Total disconnection of the match and its actions has had the visiting team, so the home team took advantage of a rebound that was left after a corner shot and Bienvenue Kanakimana defined first to place the fourth.
START OF THE SECOND MATCH
The teams ready on the court, makes the Burundi kick that leads by three goals and the game seems to continue as usual, where locals dominate while visitors wait in their area trying to close the spaces.
END OF THE FIRST HALF
Burundi score 3-0 against Seychelles at the Stade d'honneur in Meknès. With class, a goal and a clear idea of the game has been shown far superior to his rival who has not found a way to leave a better image in the match.
45'
Two more minutes will be played. The game is having an incredible close for Burundi that is clearly dominating the game, has had many opportunities and already ordered to save three of them. The game from the sides was crucial.
43'
The defensive block of the visiting team is too low, they have decided to withdraw in their zone, but still, the locals have found a way to win spaces. The game by the bands and the speed in decision making, has been key.
39'
Burundi controls and distributes very calmly, it is aware that it has been far superior and that its rival will not put pressure on it. That is why the arrivals are still from the locals to Seychelles who does not enter in match.
35'
The visitors have advanced their lines a little, the coach asks them to be more dynamic and concentrate on both defense and attack. The score of the locals is very wide and we are barely in the first half.
31'
GOOOAL! GOOOOAL! BURUNDI GOOOAL!
Bonfils-Caleb Bimenyimana double, the striker is at a key moment and has found himself well positioned in the area to receive passes from his teammates. Now, it was by right band that the center came by low.
28'
Seychelles does not manage to wake up, has not been able to make a single good move to get out of its area, nor has it been influential from the individualities and the collectivity is null. If you neglect more, another goal can come at any time.
24'
GOOOAL! THE SECOND! BURUNDI’S GOOOAL!
There was very little time, but he took advantage of the local team to win by the left side and reach the final line where they sent a center for low, which came Bonfils-Caleb Bimenyimana to expand the lead on the scoreboard.
22'
GOOOAL! GOOOOAL! BURUNDI GOOOAL!
Christophe Nduwarugira scored the first goal of the match, received a good center from the right side and headed with direction, the ball hit the goalkeeper and then went to the bottom of the net.
20'
Seychelles' defensive scheme, though designed to protect their bow, could end up draining them if they fail to recover the ball and counter-attack. If they remain passive, it is only a matter of time for the local team to find the right space to generate a dangerous play.
16'
The local team is being insistent and is now in the area of Seychelles, who have not managed to get out of their own field and put together a different game. The scheme is too defensive and just waiting to see what his rival does.
12'
Burundi pushes high and is strong in the mark, is trying to prevent the advance of his rival to their area and ends up giving him a result for the moment. Visitors have not been able to fully enter the game, it is becoming more and more difficult for them.
8'
Elie Sopha received a yellow card for Seychelles, cut a promising advance and in a dangerous zone. Burundi picked up, but the play was not organized to be an offensive action, in the end they ended up touching towards the defense zone.
4'
The game is very rubbed, it has had to pause on some occasions. Despite that, the locals are the ones who are trying to lead the party, they try to get closer to the opposite area. Both are coming in strong.
START OF THE MATCH
The referee’s initial kick and the game begins to move backwards, Burundi takes the ball and wants to play out, but the central defender from left gets a foul in the first game action. It may be interesting the high pressure of Seychelles in the game.
