The Match ended in favour of Nigeria : 2 : 0.

Super Eagles Travelled To Madagascar in a must -win return leg. Nigeria have earlier won the first leg 2 - 0.



Cameroon and Egypt are officially out of the 2012 African Cup of Nations .

ANALYSIS GROUP BY GROUP:

GROUP A
Mali must win away to bottom of the group Liberia. Anything other than a win will most likely see them out.
Zimbabwe fly off to Cape Verde. Whoever wins this match has a chance to qualify (possibly as one of the 2 second placed teams), but they need to win by a big margin!

GROUP B
Nigeria vs Guinea matchup: Nigeria wins by any scoreline and they qualify. Anything other than a win means Nigeria is out.
Even if Guinea lose they are sure to qualify as one of the second placed teams (with 9 points).
If you do the math GUINEA HAS PRACTICALLY ALREADY QUALIFIED! PLEASE NOTE: This is under the presumption that Madagascar does not win over Ethiopia in Addis Abeba (in this case they have 7 points and a very good goal difference).

GROUP C
Winner takes all.
Zambia need a win or a draw at home to qualify. A loss means they are out.
Libya need to win. A draw gives them 8 points and a good chance to qualify as one of the second placed teams. A loss makes qualification highly unlikely as Libya has a poor head to head with 7 points.

GROUP D
All to play for, Morocco in pole position but need to win. If Morocco mess up at home against Tanzania anyone can take it, No chance for anyone from this group to qualify as one of the best second placed teams.

GROUP E
Senegal qualified, the rest of the teams are eliminated.

GROUP F
Burkina Faso qualified, the rest of the teams are eliminated. That said there is an open enquiry whether or not Burkina Faso fielded an ineligible player. If found guilty they forfeit 6 points to Namibia, who qualify through the back door.

GROUP G
Niger lead the group, but need to win away in Egypt to qualify as group winner. A loss eliminates them, while a draw gives them a small chance to qualify with 7points as a 2nd placed team, but with a poor goal difference.
South Africa and Sierra Leone have to fight for the win. Whoever wins either wins the group (if Niger fails to win) or has 7 points and have to count for a 2nd placed qualification (if Niger win the last game). A draw puts them at the mercy of Niger.

GROUP H
Cote d'Ivoire qualified, the rest of the teams are eliminated.

GROUP I
Sudan host Ghana in the all-determining match. Whoever wins progresses. The loser has 7 points (plus a very good goal difference) and has to count on progressing as the 2nd placed team. A draw means that Ghana wins the group, while Sudan is second with 8 points and is almost sure of qualifying.

GROUP J
One of the most complicated situations. Uganda host Kenya, while Angola visits the already eliminated Sierra Leone.
a) Uganda win they qualify. A draw or even a minimal one goal loss will be enough if Angola fail to win their last game. Any other result eliminates them.
b) Kenya MUST WIN by 2 goals to stand any chance of qualifying. Even then they must count on Angola NOT WINNING their last game (if Angola draw than Kenya wins the group with three teams on 10 points but with Kenya having the best goal difference). They still have an outside chance to qualify with 7 points as a second best loser. All in all their chances are very slim,
c) Angola MUST WIN their last game and hope Uganda does not win their game. They have no chance of qualifying as a second best team.

GROUP K
Botswana qualified. Basically Tunisia has to get a better result than Malawi (if Malawi loses Tunisia must draw, if Malawi draw Tunisia must win, if Malawi wins than Tunisia is screwed, )
