South Africa in Morocco Out | RSA 2-2 Morocco

Host South Africa twice came from behind to draw with Morocco 2-2 on Sunday and advance to the quarterfinals after finishing top of Group A in the African Cup of Nations.

The result meant that Cape Verde also reached the quarterfinals in its first major tournament after beating Angola 2-1 in a game that took place simultaneously in Port Elizabeth. Morocco finished third in the group.

Goals from Issam El Adoua and substitute Abdelilah Hafdi appeared to have put Morocco through for the first time since 2004.

But on both occasions South Africa fought back, with May Mahlangu and Siyabonga Sangweni ensuring the hosts topped their group on goal difference.
