Liberia needed a last-gasp penalty save, Ethiopia an own goal, Tanzania shoot-out penalties and Equatorial Guinea a late strike to all win their World Cup first round ties on Sunday and advance to the group phase of the qualifiers for Qatar 2022.
Sierra Leone reduced the aggregate deficit through Kei Kamara after 55 minutes of Sunday's second leg and would have won the tie on the away goal rule if they had scored the penalty in stoppage time at the end of the match. Tanzania made heavy weather of their tie against Burundi after drawing 1-1 away in the first leg last Wednesday.
