Tunisia and Gabon go through

Another thrilling day’s action at the Africa Cup of Nations culminated with Tunisia and co-hosts Gabon booking their places in the quarter-finals thanks to late winning goals.

Gabon progressed after clinching a 3-2 victory against Morocco with Bruno Zita Mbanangoye’s curling free-kick, while Issam Jemaa was Tunisia’s hero.

Houssine Kharja had put Morocco ahead in the 24th minute of a game they had to get something from to keep alive their hopes of reaching the last eight.
