Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong><\/span>Reigning champions Algeria are in danger of an early exit from the Africa Cup of Nations after a shock 1-0 defeat at the hands of outsiders Equatorial Guinea in Douala on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Esteban Obiang’s 70th-minute goal gave Equatorial Guinea the victory and brought Algeria’s 35-game unbeaten record crashing to an end.<\/p>\n

” It ends (Algeria’s unbeaten run). What do you want, we are in a tough position. We are in a difficult situation, a big difficult situation that we have not experienced for a long time. I’ll tell you that we are in a tough period, a really tough one,” said Djamel Belmadi, Algeria head coach.<\/p>\n

Alhaji Kamara bundled the ball into the net following an astonishing goalkeeping blunder in injury time to give Sierra Leone a shock 2-2 draw with the Ivory Coast at the Africa Cup of Nations in Douala on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The Ivory Coast coach was left astonished after the incident but also expressed satisfaction and hopeful in the forthcoming game to further strengthen their qualification to the next stage.<\/p>\n

” Most important is to see our people smile, to see what it means for people back home. In the last two games, we managed to bring a lot of smiles. So we got one more big, big game, in the group. And hopefully, we can get three points and qualify,” said Steven Caulker, Sierra Leone center-back.<\/p>\n

Ivory Coast now tops Group E with 4 points. Equatorial Guinea are second with 3 points, Sierra Leone are third with two points and Algeria is last on the table with a point.<\/p>\n

Ivory Coast will meet Algeria in their last Group E match on Thursday, while Algeria will play Equatorial Guinea on the same day. A win for any team guarantees their qualification.<\/p>\n

The Gambia also drew Mali 1-1 in Group F matches on Sunday to move both teams closer to the elimination stage.<\/p>\n

Tunisia also recorded their first win on Sunday after beating Mauritania 4-0.<\/p>\n

Mali and The Gambia top the group with four points each, Tunisia three points and Mauritania have no point.<\/p>\n

The Gambia will face Tunisia while Mali will play Mauritania on Thursday<\/p>\n
