Three super powers in African football will either cruise into the round of 16 or crash out of the AFCON after their respective matches today.
The Terenga Lions of Senegal, who have three points after two matches will take on the Harambee Stars of Kenya, who have the same number of points in a winner-takes-all encounter.
Bafana Bafana of South Africa will have to defeat highly rated Morocco or atleast secure a point and hope that other results go in their favor if they will progress to the round of 16. They lost their first match to Ivory Coast and defeated Namibia in their second match. With only three points, they need to avoid defeat to Morocco if they will not be eliminated.
The Brave Warriors of Namibia are standing in the way of Elephants of Cote d’Ivoire’s qualification for the round of 16. With only three points, Cote d’Ivoire must defeat the Brave Warriors to guarantee a place in the round of 16 no matter the outcome of other matches.
The last fixture for today will see Emmanuel Amunike’s Taifa Stars of Tanzania, who are already eliminated, lurk horns with Algeria, who are already through to the round of 16, having garnered six points.
