half-time to equalise on 88 minutes through Patson Daka.<br \/>\nEarlier on Sunday, Morocco and the Democratic Republic of Congo also drew 1-1, leaving all four teams with a chance of qualifying for the knockout stage.<\/p>\n<p>Morocco has four points, DR Congo and Zambia two each and <a

on Wednesday in the Ivory Coast.<\/p>\n<p>Tanzania was coached by caretaker Hemed Suleiman after Adel Amrouche was suspended by the Confederation of African Football, and then fired by the Tanzanian Football Federation.<\/p>\n<p>CAF banned the Algerian coach for eight matches after he claimed in a TV interview that Moroccan officials were influencing the appointment of match officials and kick-off times.<\/p>\n<p>Both teams showed three changes after disappointing debuts four days ago in a group including shock 2022 World Cup semi-finalists Morocco.<\/p>\n<p>Tanzania collapsed against Morocco in the closing stages when reduced to 10 men by a red card and fell 3-0 while Zambia was fortunate to draw 1-1 with DR Congo.<\/p>\n<p>Since stunning the Ivory Coast in a 2012 final decided by a penalty shootout, Zambia has failed to win in eight Cup of Nations matches and did not qualify for the past three editions.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Dismal record \u2013<\/p>\n<p>Tanzania went into this match with a dismal record of one draw and six losses from three appearances at the African football showpiece.<\/p>\n<p>Zambia began the match in the southwestern coastal city as favourites to win their first Cup of Nations meeting with lower-ranked Tanzania but was soon trailing.<\/p>\n<p>The Chipolopolo (Copper Bullets) surrendered possession cheaply inside their half and a swift counter-attack set up unmarked Msuva to slam the ball over goalkeeper Lawrence Mulenga.<\/p>\n<p>Msuva scored two of the three goals that qualified the Taifa Stars for the tournament, but he has been without a club since leaving Algerian side JS Kabylie last September.<\/p>\n<p>A disappointing opening half for Zambia worsened one minute before half-time when Kabwe was sent off after being yellow-carded a second time.<\/p>\n<p>The second caution came after Kabwe elbowed rival captain Mbwana Samatta and the Zambian protested furiously for several minutes before leaving the pitch.<\/p>\n<p>In the aftermath of the sending-off, the Benin referee yellow-carded angry Zambia coach Avram Grant, the former Chelsea and West Ham United manager.<\/p>\n<p>Daka, the most high-profile Zambian having played in the Premier League with Leicester City, burst toward goal just past the hour mark and forced a good save from Aisha Manula.<\/p>\n<p>Zambian pressure finally paid off through Daka, whose powerful near-post header from a corner gave Manula no chance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Simon Msuva scored after 11 minutes for Tanzania, but Zambia
