At 32 years of age, Aristide Bance still knows how to sparkle.
On Saturday, only four minutes after taking the pitch, Bance set back the clock and opened the scoring in the quarter-final between Burkina Faso and Tunisia at the Africa Cup of Nations. The fixture appeared to be heading for extra time, but the Burkinabe substitute rocketed the ball past Aymen Mathlouthi in the 81st minute after the Stallions were awarded a free-kick.
Burkina Faso went on to win 2-0.
