Tunisia and Congo DR have both qualified for quarterfinals of the 2015 African Nations Cup tournament in Equatorial Guinea.
With the outcome of the games in the final round of matches in group B, Cape Verde and Zambia became the latest two teams to exit the competition.
Cape Verde would be cursing their luck as they only got eliminated despite having the same goal difference with DR Congo, as the latter went through by virtue of more goals scored.
It was yet another round of draws at the Nations Cup tournament, with none of the teams recording a victory or a loss.
Tunisia and Congo battled to a 1-1 draw in their own game while neither Cape Verde nor Zambia was able to find the net in 0-0 game that was almost marred with heavy rainfall.
Jeremy Loteteka Bokila's equalizing goal in their 1-1 draw proved vital as it was what ended up qualifying them for the last eight.
Ahmed Akaichi's first half goal seemed to have set Congo DR on the paths of elimination, until they drew level, Cape Verde on their path didn't do themselves a lot of good, failing to score a goal against Zambia.
Tunisia finished topped the group with five points, while Congo DR come in second with three points.
