DAR ES SALAAM, Tanzania (AP) — Borussia Dortmund star Serhou Guirassy will miss the Africa Cup of Nations next year after Tanzania upset Guinea 1-0 to qualify at the visitors’ expense on Tuesday. Botswana and Mozambique grabbed the last qualification places to complete the lineup for the 24-team tournament in Morocco. Botswana ended its 12-year wait for its second Africa Cup appearance with a 1-1 draw against already-qualified Egypt. It lifted Tanzania into second place — one point ahead of Guinea — to qualify as runner-up behind group winner Congo. Comoros, Zambia, Mali, and Zimbabwe secured their qualification Friday, while Nigeria, Tunisia, South Africa, Uganda, Equatorial Guinea and Gabon clinched their spots on Thursday.
