Postmatch editorial

Neither side managed to pull the match clear

The final score was Congo 1-1 Tanzania. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.

The late equaliser came from Selemani Mwalimu Abdallah 84', which kept the game level at the finish.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Congo led Total shots 5-2, even though the scoreboard went another way. Tanzania also shaded Corners 3-7.
