The national team, which finish second behind Mali, needed just a point at least to ensure their stay in the tournament.
Bafana have, so far, won one match after beating the Brave Warriors 4-0. They drew one against Tunisia and lost one against group winner, Mali.
Themba Zwane was declared the player of the match.
The South African squad will now move to the next round of the tournament that’s taking place in Côte d’Ivoire, Ivory Coast. They will face the winner of Group F, Morocco, on Tuesday at 10pm.

A world class performance from our goalkeeper Ronwen Williams… He made sure Bafana Bafana kept the cleansheet tonight! On the ball offensively he was crucial.
Our captain!
Thank you bafana’s!
