Riyad Mahrez scored twice as Algeria left it late to earn a 2:2 draw with Zimbabwe at the Africa Cup of Nations.

But Kudakwashe Mahachi's low shot into the corner and a Nyasha Mushekwi penalty made it 2:1 to Zimbabwe - a lead they held until the 82nd minute.

Algeria hit the bar twice before Mahrez levelled with a speculative 25-yard shot that Zimbabwe goalkeeper Tatenda Mukuruva should have saved.
