Tunisia failed to qualify for the World Cup finals, losing 1-0 to Mozambique Saturday.

Tunisia topped Group B before the match, but Dario scored for Mozambique on a fast break in the 83rd minute to ruin the visitors' World Cup dreams.

Nigeria finished first in Group B with 12 points from six qualifying matches, one clear of Tunisia.

Mozambique secured third place with seven points to qualify for the African Cup of Nations next January.
