Algeria reached the Africa Cup of Nations quarter-finals as Group C runners-up after beating Senegal.

By Ian Hughes BBC Sport

Sofiane Feghouli missed a great early chance when his poor touch allowed Bouna Coundoul to save at his feet.
Leicester's Riyad Mahrez struck the opener when played in by a free-kick and Tottenham's Nabil Bentaleb drove in from 18 yards after the break.
Senegal were still going through until Ghana's late winner against Algeria put the Black Stars through instead.
It was a deserved victory for Algeria, who produced the more fluid football throughout despite not quite playing at their best.
Senegal will rue a shocking defensive lapse that gifted Algeria their opener and meant the Teranga Lions were always chasing the game.
The only negative for Algeria is an injury to key man Yacine Brahimi, who was forced off after 72 minutes - they will be hopeful the midfielder will be fit for Sunday's quarter-final against the winners of Group D.

Algeria might have been more clinical with their chances - and had they scored one more goal they would have topped the table ahead of Ghana, who claimed the position because of their superior head-to-head record.
They should have punished Papy Djilobodji's heavy touch in defence that put Feghouli clean though at the start of the match, and deep into the second half Taider's shot towards an empty net was cleared near the goalline.
But the Desert Foxes did enough to secure their passage, admittedly helped by a momentary lapse of concentration from Senegal, whose defence went missing for the opening goal.
A long diagonal free-kick into the box found Mahrez in acres of space and he controlled the ball with his left and slotted it past the keeper with his right.
Senegal's response was muted but they finally caused a problem when a sustained attack ended in Sadio Mane's shot being blocked and the follow-up scrambled clear.
On 53 minutes Senegal introduced substitute Papiss Cisse - the first participation at the tournament for the Newcastle forward - and his impact was almost immediate Mame Biram Diouf cut a ball back into box and it was just cleared off Cisse's toe as he took aim.
As Senegal pressed they almost grabbed a fortunate equaliser when the referee deflected an Algeria pass back to Mane but the Southampton striker slipped as he shot.
There was to be no escape for Senegal as on 82 minutes Tottenham midfielder Bentaleb finished off a swift counter-attack with a fierce angled drive into the bottom right corner to seal Algeria's win.
Senegal coach Alain Giresse:
"I am out of contract. My contract has finished.
"The road ends here for Senegal. There will be a lot of changes in and around the team. What happens next I don't know, but I know what I am going to do.
"We were not at our best. It was a strange match. Our performance was not up to what we could have expected."

Algeria fans showed their support for their team, who rewarded them with a victory
