RABAT: Tanzania grabbed a second-half equaliser to hold Tunisia to a 1-1 draw in their last Group C encounter at the Africa Cup of Nations on Tuesday and book themselves a place in the last 16.
It was only Tanzania’s second point of the tournament but proved enough for them to advance as one of the four best third-placed finishers.
Feisal Salum’s powerful shot three minutes into the second half was enough to secure the draw after Tunisia had been ahead with a 43rd-minute penalty converted by Ismael Gharbi.
Tunisia ended second in the group behind Nigeria, who beat Uganda 3-1 in Fes at the same time.
