The final place in the Africa Cup of Nations quarter-finals will be decided by the drawing of lots after Guinea and Mali drew 1-1.

Both teams had played out 1-1 draws in their previous Group D matches, meaning lots will be required to decide who finishes second and will face Ghana. Every match in the group finished 1-1 except Wednesday’s other match, in which Ivory Coast beat Cameroon 1-0 to qualify.

It is a remarkable set of circumstances and one not seen at the Africa Cup of Nations since 1988, when the drawing of lots sent Algeria through to the knockout stage at the expense of the Ivory Coast. Bizarrely, the draw will not be made immediately but at a meeting of Confederation of African Football officials on Thursday.

So here's the Quarter Final line-up.


Congo v D.R. Congo

Ivory Coast v Algeria

Ghana v Guinea

Tunisia v Equatorial Guinea

[Liverpel]

Congo 2-2 DR Congo after 80 minutes.

We have a cracking game here (I'm assuming).

[Liverpel]

Congo 2-3 DR Congo (Kimuaki)

The comeback is complete. Substitute Kimuaki flicks the ball in from a set piece, and from 2-0 down, DR Congo lead!

[Liverpel]

2-4 now.

They'll be dancing on the streets of Kinshasa tonight.

Ivory Coast lead Algeria 1:0. Bony with the header. Good goal by him. That Max Gradel looks like a great player. Maybe worth a punt in the summer..
