Mali National Football Team Predicted XI

Possible ineup in a 4-2-3-1 formation, based on the previous games played:

Goalkeeper

• D. Diarra – First-choice shot-stopper, reliable in reflex saves and command of the penalty area.

Defenders (Back Four)

• M. Diarra – Left-back, tasked with overlapping runs and defensive cover on the flank.

• A. Diaby – Central defender, aerial presence and organizer at the back.

• S. Niakate – Partner at center-back, physical and mobile, covers ground quickly.

• S. Diakité – Right-back, balances defensive stability with occasional attacking support.

Midfield (Double Pivot)

• M. Camara – Deep-lying midfielder, distributes from deep and shields the defense.

• S. Niakate – (when pushed into midfield rotation) a ball-winner and transition player.
  (Since he’s listed as CB above, he may play double role depending on tactical shifts.)

Attacking Midfield Trio

• N. Dorgeles (LM/LW) – Direct runner, dribbler, offers width on the left flank.

• K. Doumbia (CAM) – Playmaker, operates between the lines, creative link to striker.

• Y. Bissouma (RM/RW) – Versatile midfielder pushed wide, brings defensive balance and pressing.

Forward

• E. B. Touré (ST) – Lone striker, physical presence, holds up play, and looks to convert chances.

Tactical Notes – 4-2-3-1

• Defensive Shape: Compact with Camara and Niakate (or rotating DM) shielding the center-backs.

• Midfield Control: Doumbia orchestrates attacks, while Dorgeles and Bissouma provide width and pace.

• Attack: Touré stays central, supported by wide wingers cutting inside; full-backs (M. Diarra & Diakité) provide overlaps.

• Flexibility: The double pivot allows Mali to switch into a 4-3-3 in transitions if Bissouma tucks inside.

Key Players to Watch

1. Yves Bissouma – Energy, ball-winning ability, and creativity when drifting wide.

2. Kamory Doumbia – The creative spark, capable of unlocking defenses.

3. Nene Dorgeles – Pace and flair on the wing, key in transitions.

4. El Bilal Touré – The striker and main goal threat.

5. Mamadou Camara – Defensive midfielder, crucial for balance and distribution.

This Mali XI in 4-2-3-1 gives them defensive solidity with two holding midfielders while still providing creativity through Doumbia and pace through Dorgeles & Bissouma.
