LUANDA: Algeria and Ghana are one step away from the Africa Cup of Nations final after stunning favourites Ivory Coast and hosts Angola respectively on Sunday.

Ivory Coast were sent packing by a 3-2 extra time loss to fellow World Cup qualifers Algeria in Cabinda. The Desert Foxes fell

2-1 behind on 89 minutes to a brilliant Abdulkader Keita goal only for Rangers defender Madjid Bougherra to level in stoppage

time and unmarked substitute Hamer Bouazza headed a 92nd-minute far-post winner.

Earlier, Angola crashed out, losing 1-0 to another World Cup-bound team, Ghana, to end their dreams of winning the title on home soil. Asamoah Gyan scored the solitary goal in the 16th minute.
