The DR Congo beat Ghana 2-0 to win the inaugural African Nations Championship in Abidjan on Sunday.The final - a repeat of the Group B game which Ghana easily won 3-0 - was settled by goals from Dioko Kaluyituka and Bedi Mbenza.
On a pitch made slippery by pre-match rain, Kaluyituka gave the Congolese the lead after 46 minutes when his speculative header slipped past Ghana goalkeeper Philemon Maccarthy.
Mbenza got the second goal 15 minutes from time when he controlled a cross from the left on his chest and gave Maccarthy no chance with a right-foot shot from inside the box.
The victory gives the Congolese their first continental title at any level for 35 years.
That is great, totally great. What a delight :-)
Finally there is hope in DRC...
