Zimbabwe triumphed at the flagship African tournament for the first time since 2006 when they held on for victory over previously impressive Guinea.

A Knowledge Musona header and a Kudakwashe Mahachi shot gave the Zimbabweans a two-goal half-time advantage that was reduced when Liverpool midfielder Naby Keita netted on 49 minutes.

Despite losing, Guinea scraped into the round of 16 as runners-up thanks to a better head-to-head record than Malawi who drew with Senegal 0-0.
