MONGOMO, Equatorial Guinea (Reuters) - Senegal need a point from their last Group C tie to reach the African Nations Cup quarter-finals after drawing with South Africa while Ghana raised their hopes with a late winner against Algeria on Friday. Senegal are top with four points followed by Algeria and Ghana on three and South Africa on one with one match to go.

All four countries have a chance to qualify but a draw against Algeria in Malabo on Tuesday will be enough to take the Senegalese through.
