Algeria on Monday crashed out of the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) at the group stage after failing to win a single game in Gabon.
The Fennecs of Algeria were held to a 2-2 draw by Group B winners, Terranga Lions of Senegal in a match they had to win to have any chance of avoiding an embarrassing early exit.
Islam Slimani scored their two goals: a two-yard volley and a scuffed effort that wrong-footed Algeria’s goalkeeper.
But Senegal equalised twice, with Papakouly Diop and then Moussa Sow both firing in efforts from the edge of the area.
Tunisia also beat Zimbabwe 4 – 2 to qualify for quarterfinals of the competition.
