Soccer-Tunisia book quarter-final berth with 4-2 win

By Mark Gleeson LIBREVILLE, Jan 23 (Reuters) - Tunisia kept up an impressive recent record of African Nations Cup quarter-final appearances by thumping Zimbabwe 4-2 to come second in Group B on Monday. Tunisia, who finished a point behind Senegal, now stay in the Gabonese capital where they will meet Burkina Faso on Saturday in the first of the last eight games. It is the fifth time in the last seven tournaments that Tunisia have advanced past the first round. The north Africans are making a 13th successive tournament appearance. (Editing by Ken Ferris)
