Sudan need to win their first African Cup of Nations match in 42 years by a three goal swing if they are to reach the last eight. Indeed, victory alone over Burkina Faso at the Estadio De Bata will not be enough for Sudan, who also need Ivory Coast to beat Angola in Group B’s other game. Ivory Coast have already qualified but need a point to win the group.

Highlights

19:56

Sudan are through to the knock out stages, as Ivory Coast won 2-0. It means that there is a turnaround of three, so Sudan make it through to the last eight.

90+6

Dagano scores to make it 2-1.

90+6

Tahir off for Amer.

90+5

Koffi's header just saved at the far post. Oh, that would have been cruel on Sudan if that had crept in

94+4

Koffi's shot deflected for a corner. Could this be a goal back?

93+3

Burkina Faso win a foul for Eltaib's trip on Tall.

92+2

Ramadan ready for the ding-dong. On for Bashir.

91+1

Eldin is stretchered off. Maybe he really is in pain.

90'

Five minutes of additional time

89'

Ala Eldin now down. He just got hit in the stomach, but he has gone down Platoon style. Steven Taylor of Newcastle, eat your heart out.

88'

Bashir turns on the edge of the area, but shoots well over.

87'

Tahir's shot from outside the area flicks off a defender, but they waste the corner.

86'

Akram is down again. This may well be time-wasting. They will regret that if Angola score!

84'

Ouedraogo blazes over after being set up by another reverse pass by Dagano. The substitute should have shot first time, but checked back.

82'

Akram is down after clearing the ball.

81'

Sudan definitely believe now. Eltaib with another great piece of control, but he is eventually crowded out by Kabore. If it stays like this, Sudan are through and will face Zambia in the last eight.

79'

Long kick out from Akram, Eltaib gets to the bounce of the ball before Diakite, and rolls it into the net. 2-0 Sudan.

78'

Kone off for Burkina Faso, Benjamim Balina.

77'

Traore gets the ball on the right for Burkina Faso, but his cross is easily cut out.

75'

Khalifa with an effort that deflects for a corner. Again the corner fails to beat the first man.
