Burkina Faso netted twice in the final 10 minutes to beat Tunisia 2-0 and seal their spot in the semi-finals of the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations on Saturday in Gabon.

Aristide Bance was the difference-maker, as he netted from a free-kick five minutes after coming on before Prejuce Nakoulma sealed the victory six minutes from time.
