The unpredictable tourney continued as AFCON cup holders; the Desert Warriors of Algeria were comprehensively brushed aside 4-1 by a highly inspired Elephants of Cote d` Ivoire Thursday evening .

No one saw this coming for the pre-tournament favourites, Algeria who never really got going in their 3 matches. They earlier drew 0-0 with Sierra Leone and lost 0-1 to Equatorial Guinea. Cote d` Ivoire and Equatorial Guinea have qualified from Group E. Algeria finished bottom. Shocking!
