19:12 — Zambia 0-1 Tanzania— It’s been two minutes into the second half and Zambia have a clear mandate to get back into the game or risk losing out on the points. Tanzania have defended well thus far and will hope to continue on that front, and perhaps double their lead.

19:10: South Africa 1 (I. Rayners 1’) Zimbabwe 1 (T. Chirewa 2’) – We’re back underway in Bloemfontein, where both teams have made changes: Thapelo Morena is on for Bafana Bafana, and the Warriors have introduced Daniel Msendami.

18h35 – Lesotho vs Rwanda: The score remained at 0-0 en-route to the half-hour mark while Lesotho were awarded a couple of set-plays inside the Rwanda half. Not holding back, Rwanda often found themselves probing inside the Lesotho quarters but with very little success.

18h23 – Lesotho vs Rwanda: Amavubi grew into the game after the 20th minute mark and gathered steam in their attacking movements. However, Rwanda were met with aggressive defending by the Lesotho backline.

18:21 — Zambia 0-1 Tanzania — Patson Daka almost equalises for Zambia with a shot from distance but it is easily saved by the keeper.

18h15: Cape Verde v Libya – Goal! The Blue Sharks hit the front through Diney Borges with just 10 minutes on the clock to get off to the perfect start in Praia.

18h14– Lesotho vs Rwanda: It was an even affair during the first 10 minutes at the Moses Mabhida Stadium, however, it was Lesotho who edged their opposite number to the ball possession count.

18:07 — Zambia 0-1 Tanzania — GOAL! A lapse in concentration as Chipolopolo were trying to play out from the back lead to the Tanzanian attackers taking advance as Shentembo scored in the fifth minute.
