Patson Daka’s powerful header rescued a late point for 10-man Zambia and denied Tanzania a first ever win at the Africa Cup of Nations last night.
Leicester forward Daka equalised from Clatous Chama’s inswinging corner to boost his side’s last-16 hopes. Simon Msuva’s early opener almost gave Tanzania an upset in the first match of manager Adel Amrouche’s eight-game ban. Zambia defender Rodrick Kabwe received a second booking after 44 minutes for an aerial challenge on Mbwana Samatta. Meanwhile, Silas’ clinical second-half strike earned DR Congo a deserved point against Morocco in Group F. Morocco took an early lead when Achraf Hakimi lost his marker and volleyed the opener from Hakim Ziyech’s corner. Cedric Bakambu missed a chance to equalise from the penalty spot for DR Congo shortly before half-time. — BBC Sport
