Monday Recap
South African hearts were broken in the final minute as Morocco snatched three points at the death.
A set piece and melee undid Bafana Bafana, who appeared happy with a point before their late disappointment.
They had provided little threat in the contest, with the group leaders cruising after two wins guaranteed qualification.
However, the Atlas Lions maintained their perfect group record in the final moments.
Mbark Boussoufa was the hero. South Africa failed to clear a wide free-kick, and the attacker lashed home his effort.
South Africa could still advance, but they will suffer an anxious wait for the other results.
The Ivory Coast were clinical against Namibia and guaranteed their path into the knockouts. Wilfried Zaha was on target for the eventual winners, with his team completing an emphatic 4-1 result.
Max Gradel opened the scoring for the Ivory Coast six minutes before half-time, and the Elephants doubled their advantage through veteran Serey Die after 58 minutes.
Zaha continued to advance his reputation with a goal six minutes before the end. Maxwel Cornet wrapped up the victory with a finish a minute before full-time.
Algeria flexed their muscle before half-time against Tanzania and claimed a three-goal lead to kill the game.
Islam Slimani opened the scoring 34 minutes, triggering three goals in quick succession. Adam Ounas grabbed a brace when he found the net after 39 minutes and on the stroke of half-time.
Senegal struggled to break down Kenya in the first half of their encounter but turned on the style after the interval.
Ismaila Sarr volleyed home after 63 minutes, and the goal broke the resistance of the defensive-minded Kenyans.
Sadio Mane had a first-half penalty saved by goalkeeper Patrick Matasi, but the Liverpool star was given a second chance after 71 minutes.
Mane slotted away his effort and converted his third spot-kick of the night with 12 minutes remaining after Philemon Otieno was sent off after a dangerous tackle in the box on Sarr.
