Ivory Coast beat Angola 2-0 in their final group game at the Africa Cup of Nations to finish top of Group B with a 100% record.
The result meant that Angola, who started the day in second place on four points and only needed a win to progress to the quarter-finals, were eliminated by Sudan’s 2-1 defeat of Burkina Faso – the first time Sudan have reached the last eight for 42 years.
Emmanuel Eboué scored in the 32nd minute and Wilfried Bony was gifted a tap-in for the second after a defensive mix-up by Angola just after an hour.
Ivory Coast, who made nine changes from their win against Burkina Faso, will play the co-hosts Equatorial Guinea in the last eight, and Sudan will play Zambia.
