Namibia produced a huge upset as Deon Hotto's 88th-minute header secured victory over Tunisia in their 2023 Africa Cup of Nations opener.
The Brave Warriors - ranked 115th in the world and without a victory in any of their previous nine Afcon matches - were worthy winners in Korhogo.
Striker Peter Shalulile had an earlier effort cleared off the line but Hotto pounced from Bethuel Muzeu's cross.
Tunisia, 2004 champions, are 87 places above Namibia in Fifa's standings.
The remarkable result means Namibia are second in the table on goal difference following Mali's 2-0 win over South Africa in the later Group E fixture at Amadou Gon Coulibaly Stadium.
