Baghdad Bounedjah's late goal kept 2019 winners Algeria alive at this year's Africa Cup of Nations in a thrilling draw with Burkina Faso.

Bounedjah scored both Algeria's goals while Mohamed Konate and Bertrand Traore netted for the Burkinabe, who remain top of the group on four points compared with two for Algeria.
