A 3-0 win over Niger has put Ivory Coast through to the Finals of the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations.
Goals from Serge Aurier, Max Gradel and Wilfried Kanon did the damage for the Elephants, who now are guaranteed to progress thanks to a better head-to-head record against Group K rivals Madagascar, no matter what happens in the final round of matches.
However, there was a shock in Group F as Cape Verde beat already-qualified Cameroon 3-1.
They came from a goal behind, Pierre Kunde scoring first for the Indomitable Lions, thanks to Kuca, a Macky Bagnack own goal, and a fine third by Ryan Mendes.
A key factor in the game was the strong Atlantic wind, which was at the backs of the Cape Verde players in the second half.
Their forward players were frequently able to pounce on long balls pumped forward and tear into the Cameroon defence.
This was very much how Cape Verde scored their third, Mendes gathering the ball near the halfway line and bursting past two Cameroon defenders before slotting neatly home.
Morocco played out a drab 0-0 draw against Mauritania, having learned earlier in the day that they had gone through without needing to play.
This was due to a late fightback from two goals down that kept Burundi in the hunt for qualification with a 2-2 draw against CAR in Bujumbura.
In the other early kick-off on Friday, Guinea-Bissau made sure they still had a mathematical chance of qualifying with a 3-1 win over Eswatini in Lobamba.
