SUEZ, Egypt (Reuters) - Tunisia captain Wahbi Khazri scored from a deflected free kick to rescue a 1-1 draw against Mali whose goal came direct from a corner in their Africa Cup of Nations match on Friday.
Diadie Samassekou put Mali ahead on the hour with an inswinging corner which Tunisia keeper Mouez Hassan tried to catch but, possibly caught out by a gust of wind, he allowed the ball to slip through his hands and into the net.
Tunisia's second straight 1-1 draw left them with two points in Group E while Mali have four after beating Mauritania in their opening game. Mali, who face Angola in their final game, did enough to show that they could be one of the tournament's dark horses with forward Moussa Marega giving a tireless performance in attack despite the searing heat.
