The continent continues its journey towards the 2013 competition in South Africa with a number of qualifying matches taking place during the weekend
| Mozambique 1-1 Tanzania (8-7 on pens) |
|
The game ended 8-7 after the shootout to enable the hosts to advance to the next round on 2-2 aggregate. During the first leg both teams locked horns in a 1-1 draw game at Dar Es Salaam. |
| Zimbabwe 1-0 Burundi (2-2 agg) |
|
The Swallows had a slim 2-1 lead from the first leg, but could not consolidate it at the Harare Stadium. With a goal at hand from last February’s game, the Zimbabweans took advantage of home support to advance to the second round. |
| DR Congo 3-0 Seychelles (7-0 agg) |
 Congo DR won 7–0 on aggregate to advance to the second round of the qualification process. Seychelles were too weak for coach Claude Le Roy’s charges in a second leg game that ended 3-0 at the Martyrs Stadium of Kinshasa. In the first round the Leopards walloped the Pirates 4-0. Diermeci Mbokani, Issama Mpeka and Deo Kanda got their names on the score sheet. The Frenchman used the game to trial a lot of his charges having in mind that they have scored enough in the first leg to rest the legs of most of his first choice players. |
| Benin 1-1 Ethiopia (1-1 agg) |
|
The Black Lions sailed through on the away goals rule. |
| Togo 1-0 Kenya (2-2 agg) |
|
Serge Gakpe was on target for coach Didier Six’s side to make amends for their 2-0 loss to DR Congo during the 2014 World Cup qualifying games. |
