Ouedraogo takes Burkina's third in three days

Abdoul Salam Ouedraogo has won Burkina Faso's third stage in three days, following on from the good work of his compatriot Hamidou Sawadogo, who won stages 6 and 7. Ouedraogo beat French rider Sebastien Lebaron (Panorimo 23 La Creuse) in a two man sprint in Fada N'Gourma, with the peloton close on their heels led in by Lionel Syne (Marco Polo) at 16 seconds. The race lead was unchanged with Abdelati Saadoune (Morocco) still leading Alexandre Lecoq by 1'09 and Hamado Pafadnam by 2'40.

The 64 riders remaining in the race started at Koupela shortly after 8:30am, with a stage of 82 kilometres in front of them finishing in Fada N'Gourma. Franck Vermeulen (Panorimo 23 La Creuse) was the first rider to successfully attack, and he stayed away to win the sprint in Gounghin (km 31). Behind him, Lionel and Christof Marien (Aliplast) took second and third place in the sprint, with Syne reinforcing his grip on the pink jersey.

After 50 km, the day's winning breakaway came with Abdoul Salam Ouedraogo (Burkina B) and Sébastien Lebaron (Panorimo 23 La Creuse) attacking the peloton. They increased their lead to nearly two minutes at the second sprint in Diapangou (km 61) and the Moroccan team controlled peloton was not going to catch them.

In the sprint in Fada N'Gourma, Ouedraogo finished clear ahead of Lebaron, giving his country its third win in three days, and another very popular one.
