EXCLUSIVE: Paul Put infuriated by wasteful Guinea in Afcon 2019 opener against Madagascar

Guinea coach Paul Put lamented his side's wastefulness in front of goal after they squandered several chances in their 2-2 draw against Madagascar.

The shock draw against the Africa Cup of Nations debutants put a little dent in the 1976 runners-up’s chances of reaching the Round of 16 and left them two points behind Nigeria with two games to play.
