South Africa vs Tunisia – LIVE!
Group E at this year’s Africa Cup of Nations wraps up today with everything still to play for. South Africa and Tunisia are both still capable of making it through into the last 16, along with Namibia and Mali. Few would have predicted Tunisia would be in this position before a ball was kicked but they must beat Bafana Bafana in order to stand any chance of progress into the latter stages.
Yet to win and having lost to Namibia in a history-making result, the pressure is on the Eagles of Carthage. While South Africa do not boast the most fearsome of AFCON records, they may have already done enough to progress after beating Namibia last time out despite losing to Mali. A point could be enough to see them through, albeit they cannot afford to relax all too much. Follow all the action LIVE with Standard Sport’s dedicated match blog!
