Nigeria v Tunisia - Live AFCON updates

Thanks for joining us.

Unreal shock here! Nigeria - one of the favourites for the tournament - are sent packing by a depleted Tunisian side!

They defended resolutely and took a key chance! The Eagles of Carthage progress to the quarter finals!

The Tunisian bench makes another change to kill time as Ben Slimane is off and Rekik is on.

Olayinka feeds in Sadiq, who is in acres of space in the area and has the goal right in front of him, but he shanks his effort wide!

The board goes up for five minutes at the end of the half.

Aribo is off for Musa.

Wilfred Ndidi hits a shot narrowly wide as Nigeria throw everything to get an equaliser!

Khazri and Jebali come on, with Jaziri and Msakni making way.

Nigeria have a free-kick in a dangerous position, but Moses Simon's effort just goes over the bar! Nigeria need a goal here if they want to save their tournament!

Haidadi cuts it back for Skhiri in the box, but his flying shot is blocked well. Eventually the flag goes up.

Sadiq breaks away for Nigeria, but a good sliding challenge is made by Ifa in the crucial moment to deny him - just as Ben Said had come off his line as well.

Tunisia substitute Sliti fires a powerful shot from distance towards the top corner, but Okoye makes an acrobatic save to deny him!

Sadiq comes on for Chukwueze.

Aina does well to drive down the right, before cutting it back for Chukwueze.

The winger has work to do to wriggle around some Tunisian players as the ball is behind him, but he does well on the half-turn, before firing a shot but it is high and wide.

Sliti comes on for Rafia.

Ben Said makes a fantastic stop to deny Moses Simon at his near post! He tries to slide one into the corner following a cross from Chukwueze, but is denied!

Alex Iwobi is sent off! Minutes after coming on!

His challenge on Msakni is checked by VAR, with the referee going to the monitor to have a look.

The replays show the challenge is worse than first feared - an ankle snapper.

He changes his decision, and sends Iwobi off! Nigeria are down to ten!

Good work from Moses Simon on the left, who cuts the ball back for Wilfred Ndidi just outside the box in the centre.

He opts to hit a powerful effort from range, but it is always rising and goes over the bar.

Olayinka and Iwobi are coming on for Nigeria. Iheanacho and Awoniyi come off.

Awoniyi tries to dance his way into the box again, but he loses the ball from another strong challenge.
