Two of the teams were in action in Cairo, where four-time African champions Egypt beat Senegal by a lone goal.
Two other African sides played a goalless draw in Tunis, as Nations Cup hosts Tunisia took on Morocco.
Tunisia´s Adel Chedly failed to beat Khalid Fouami FROM the penalty spot, after the Moroccan ´keeper brought down Ziad Jaziri in the first minute of the second-half.
It is the second successive game in which Tunisia has failed to score and the home fans, disappointed with their display, booed the team off the pitch.
After losing 1-0 to Japan last
