South Africa reached the last 16 at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations with a goalless draw against Tunisia which eliminated the 2004 champions.
Sphephelo Sithole had Bafana Bafana’s best chance, forcing Bechir Ben Said into a low save with his shot from outside the box.
Tunisia failed to create clear openings but Haythem Jouini headed a late opportunity over the bar.
South Africa held their nerve to see out five minutes of added time.
