YAOUNDE (Reuters) -Hassane Bande chested home the ball six minutes before halftime to give Burkina Faso a 1-0 win over the Cape Verde Islands at the Africa Cup of Nations finals on Thursday.

Bande thrust his chest forward to steer in a cross from Isaa Kabore and secure a first Group A victory for his country, who lost their opening game to hosts Cameroon on Sunday.

Bande was brought into the line-up to replace Bertrand Traore, who tested positive for COVID-19 on the eve of the match Burkina showed more attacking intent in yet another 1-0 result, the 10th in 14 games at the tournament.
