Zimbabwe have improved in the past ten minutes, encouraging for them and for Algeria fans.

GOOD SAVE! Musona cuts inside from the right, he unleashes a fierce drive which is well kept out for a corner. The set piece from Billiat is a good one and Phiri heads the ball over.

SO CLOSE! Nakamba collects the ball 25 yards out and his swerving effort goes just wide, decent effort.

OUCH! Maaloul is groaning in pain after appearing to twist his ankle. He is going off for treatment.
27'
The Zimbabweans's confidence looks shot to pieces, a shame considering their impressive display against Algeria.

25'
DISALLOWED GOAL: Msekni's low shot is pushed by the keeper onto the post, it falls to Khazri who taps the ball in from a few yards out but it is chalked off for off-side.
24'
What do the Warriors do now? They have to ride out the remainder of the half and maybe make some changes at the break.
22'
GOAL! Wonderful move. Msekni trades passes with Slithi before rifling a low shot from inside the box through the keeper's legs.

We are at the midway point of the half and the Tunisians have a deserved lead through Slithi's deflected strike, they are getting plenty of joy down the flanks.
20'
GOOD DEFENDING: Slithi with a fine ball with the outside of his foot for Msakni who slides in along with the keeper and Zimbabwe clear as the striker is given off-side.
19'
Plenty of time to go but as it stands, the Eagles will play Burkina Faso in the last eight.
18'
We have not seen anything from Billiat or skipper Katsande yet, it's been mostly Tunisia.
16'
Tunisia win a corner after Ben Amor is tackled in the area. The set piece from Khazri is poor though and goes into the side netting
14'
Wonderful skill from Msakni who beats his man by trapping the ball under his foot. At the other end, Mushewki barges through Abdennour and wins the ball off him in the box, but his shot is well saved. The linesman rules Mushekwi had fouled the defender, that looked harsh.
12'
In the other game, Algeria lead 1-0 against Senegal thanks to Slimani. But Tunisia will qualify if the results stay the same.
11'
LUCKY BOY: Nhamoinesu escapes a booking for a sliding challenge, he could have seen red for that aggressive tackle.
9'
GOAL! The corner is blocked, it falls to Sliti whose low drive from distance takes two deflections and nestles in the back of the net.
