Tournament Review:
Soumbeyla Diakite was Mali’s first choice goalkeeper at the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations, racking up four starts and almost 400 minutes of playing time.
He was an impressive performer between the sticks, though he has stiff competition from Oumar Sissoko to deal with.
Pre-Tournament Profile:
Soumbeila Diakite is likely to be one of Mali’s backup goalkeepers at the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations but could push veteran Mahamadou Sidibe out of the starting XI and claim the number one jersey for himself.
The 27-year-old plays his club football at local side Stade Malien and has a fair amount of international experience, having been part of Mali squads at the last two AFCON tournaments in Ghana and Angola, as well as the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens.
