Tunisia beat Ghana on penalties to set up an Africa Cup of Nations quarter-final with Madagascar.
Goalkeeper Farouk Ben Mustapha was the hero, coming on for the shootout and saving Caleb Ekuban’s penalty.
Tunisia had been seconds away from winning in 90 minutes, but substitute Rami Bedoui headed into his own net in injury time, with his first touch.
They had led in Ismailia through Taha Yassine Khenissi’s goal from Wajdi Kechrida’s cross.

Ghana striker Ekuban was the only player to fail with his kick in the shootout, with Ferjani Sassi scoring the winning kick.
Tunisia now face Madagascar, ranked 108th in the world, on Thursday, despite not having won a game in 90 minutes. The Eagles of Carthage drew all three group games before their penalty shootout win over Ghana.
The Black Stars dominated the opening stages of the game, and had a first-half goal controversially disallowed. Thomas Partey fed Jordan Ayew, who crossed for his brother Andre to score a backheel.
The referee ruled the goal out for a Partey handball, with VAR not coming in until the quarter-finals, but the Atletico midfielder controlled the ball with his chest.
Many in Ghana were not too happy with the officiating:
In Monday’s first game, Wilfried Zaha scored the winner as the Ivory Coast beat Mali 1-0 to reach the quarter-finals.
Mali had been wasteful with Moussa Marega and Moussa Djenepo both missing good opportunities when well placed.
The Ivory Coast play Algeria in the last eight on Thursday (17:00 BST).
There are no games on Tuesday.
