Namibia produced a huge upset as Deon Hotto's 88th-minute header secured victory over Tunisia in their 2023 Africa Cup of Nations opener.
Even in the context of several early surprises in Ivory Coast, it would have been fanciful to anticipate victory for a team who had failed to escape the group stage in three previous attempts against far more experienced and decorated opponents.
Shalulile, who plays for South African PSL club Mamelodi Sundowns and scored four times in six qualifiers, set the tone for a first half in which the underdogs had by far the better chances, testing Tunisia's Bechir Ben Said with an early shot and forcing him to stop another strike with his legs soon afterwards.
