The knockout stage in the Africa Cup of Nations is underway. The field has been trimmed to 11 teams, with more than half of the round of 16 completed. Burkina Faso became the first country to advance to the quarterfinals, ousting Gabon in an intense penalty shootout. Nigeria were then eliminated by Tunisia, who also moved onto the last eight on Sunday.
Cameroon and Gambia joined them as quarterfinalists on Monday, knocking out Comoros and Guinea, respectively. Senegal was a 2-0 winner over Cape Verde on Tuesday to advance. Mo Salah and Egypt have a round of 16 clash with Ivory Coast set for Wednesday.
There was tragedy at AFCON on Monday as at least eight people were killed in a stampede outside the stadium that hosted Cameroon-Comoros. The CAF said it is investigating the incident.
