The matches in the six group stages of the ongoing African Cup of Nations wrapped up on Wednesday with teams believed to be underdogs crashing out of the tournament and the least expected advancing to Round of 16.
The host nation, Cote d’Ivoire completed the fourth third-place spot after Morocco beat Zambia 1-0 to maintain the Group F lead with seven points.
Only one among the Northern African teams was able to make it with former Champions Algeria scooping just two points in the tournament. Tunisia also couldn’t get past the three teams in its group leading to its coach parting ways with the Carthage Eagles.
