00:00We are underway at the Bereshit Stadium just near Casablanca for this vital last round

00:11of matches in the group stage.

00:14Group C, Gambia against Tunisia.

00:16The winner will definitely go through.

00:18The stakes could barely be higher for these young players in the first ever meeting between

00:23these two nations at under-17 level and it's a very important one too.

00:29Tunisia in their white strip, looking to the left of your screen.

00:33First touch for Anis Said who's going to be a real danger.

00:37That's the coach Yaya Mane, who's here to restore the greatness of incontinental Africa

00:45but they have a huge tradition at this great event which has got better and better over

00:50the years and maybe an early chance.

00:52It is an early chance for Tunisia, it's come all the cross and well they can't clear their

00:56lines and finally it's held by member Jame Haji Abdallah was there.

01:02Third quarter final appearance in this competition after 2007 and 2013.

01:08Knocked in by Sané, the header was a decent one into the arms of Slim Boascar, he's had

01:14too much to do so far.

01:18Swung in and Slim Boascar holds on to it, plays, go through, Ivory Coasters, the group

01:25winners.

01:26Here come Tunisia, it's a good cross, is this the chance?

01:29And it was a shot that was from Fadi Taiechi.

01:35Keba Kamara, this is Drame, good ball inside from Drame, he's screaming for the ball back.

01:42Drame, Drame, bearing down on goal, it comes across but just couldn't get it goalwards,

01:49Drame did so well.

01:53Tunisia are warned, here come Gambier again, knocked in, the header on was from Bissenti

02:04Mendy.

02:05There is Saidi, it's put across and three, four players just throwing themselves at the

02:14ball for Gambier, the shot comes in, Ben Mahmoud, couldn't force it over after Fadi Taiechi

02:21put it goalwards.

02:22Number six, but defending to do here, Babali, Mendy wants it, here is Mendy and the shot

02:31just wide and Gambier, that's the closest they've come so far.

02:37Naeem Telmoudi, Telmoudi does well, skips inside, he's found Taiechi, Taiechi is going

02:45to have a go as is Ben Mahmoud.

02:49Much to the relief of Gambier, infringement in their football, so important in modern

02:54game and that's exactly what they've done.

02:57It's to Ben Mahmoud, it's come off the bar, Ben Mahmoud, Ben Mahmoud has got the rebound

03:07but it's not going to count, there's an offside, Ben Mahmoud's header bounced off the bar,

03:15it came back to that and this is a big, big decision for VAR, the header was high and

03:20looping and it came right back to him and VAR will look at that again, you know, just

03:26for a fourth goal of the competition, Slim Boascar, it goes, hit the bar, it's at the

03:34post, so close, that's the closest Gambier have come and Yusuf Aketa, so close, it was

03:43a towering header from Aketa and just hit the post, Ben Mahmoud wins it, Haj Abdallah,

03:57there's Ben Mahmoud again, Ben Mahmoud, well he's not going to be denied this time, seconds

04:04after having a goal ruled out, Yassine Ben Mahmoud has scored what could be an absolutely

04:11crucial goal, it was a brilliant strike and Tunisia have the lead, well Tunisia will feel

04:22they deserve that, they've been peppering the Gambier goal but that was a pure, instinctive

04:28finish from Yassine Ben Mahmoud, not too much emotion from Mohamed Nafati but my word that

04:35was a good hit, what a talent he is, he won the ball there, the good run was from Haj Abdallah

04:42and it came back to Ben Mahmoud and there was no way Ben Bojamaa was going to stop that

04:47one, that's a really good finish, under 17 at any level, 1-0, he enjoyed that one, knows

04:59where the goal is, knows where the camera is, it is halftime at the Bereshit Stadium, one goal,

05:11Ben Mahmoud, a brilliant strike from distance, just after he'd been denied by an offside decision,

05:18an impressive first half for him and one for Tunisia at halftime, Gambier nil, Tunisia one.

05:29Underway in the second half Gambier, the finals of the under 17 Africa Cup of Nations and within

05:40the first few seconds they've got one, within what six seconds Gambier have scored, incredible

05:48scenes at the Bereshit Stadium, that must be the quickest goal of a half so far, it was put in

05:57within 10 seconds, maybe less, what a start to the second half, Bissenti Mendy pokes it past Slim

06:06Bouazkar and we've got a real match on our hands here, remarkable stuff, Mendy has scored almost

06:16straight from the kick, it was pumped forward, was there an offside, VAR will of course look at it

06:22but you have to say that was a real opportunist effort from Bissenti Mendy and it's 1-1.

06:28What a start to the second half, barely had time to catch our breath, Gambier screaming to get away

06:41from the goal, out, out, was that a penalty? No, it's waved away, Haj Abdallah thought he was failed,

06:48this is keen, Spice was needed, Haj Abdallah, the challenge was from Ahmed Kanyi.

07:03The referee is going to go to his monitor,

07:07the VAR team believe there is a case to be answered.

07:18So we're waiting for the decision.

07:31Penalty, a huge decision, the Tunisian fans are on their feet and now they have a real chance,

07:40Mohamed Nafati knows that that could be a turning point and the big job now is Bamba Jameh.

07:52It's Anis Saidi,

07:56no mistake, it's a brilliant penalty, Saidi has scored and Tunisia are back ahead after the foul

08:04on Haj Abdallah, Anis Saidi with a brilliant penalty and it's 2-1 for Tunisia.

08:19The joy and the relief, there was no way in Bamba Jameh was getting to that, that was a really good

08:24strike and Tunisia back ahead for a final, looking to see where the keeper was but that had real

08:30power in it, you know, make no mistake, top quality penalty.

08:41Anis Saidi.

08:49Plenty of celebrations from the players, less so from Mohamed Nafati.

08:53Jameh knocks it through, Mendy, Mendy, Mendy's bearing down on goal,

09:02Jameh wants it and it's poked forward and over the bar, so close and it was Kaba Kamara.

09:11Comes Saidi, oh that's a good ball back from Saidi, is it going to come to Ben Mahmood, Saidi,

09:19Saidi, miscues that one, goes for it again, is a chance, Ben Mahmood, it hits the post,

09:25Ben Mahmood again, can't get a connection. No foul there, Gambia have got it back,

09:32is there still hope for them, the tackles are flying in now.

09:38Yellow cards are coming thick and fast,

09:41as Barre driving forwards, this exciting end to end game, it is indeed a red, yep I was right,

09:48it's a second yellow and Tunisia are going to finish with 10.

09:53Ilyas Dawit is off, might not make too much difference with just a couple of minutes left,

10:01putting that challenge in just to stop that counter-attack.

10:04That's for Yaya Manet, might not make too much difference, must get one now and hope for a late

10:12miracle and Tunisia have shown they're a real title contender, they have won two goals to one

10:21and it was a penalty from the player in your picture, Ani Saidi, to finish off the 2-1 win,

10:28Mendy equalised right at the start of the second half after a super goal from Ben Mahmood.
