Congo crank pressure on Warriors, DRC

CONGO Brazzaville has thrown wide open the Group G of the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers after beating Liberia 3-1 at the Stade Alphonse Massemba-Débat in Brazzaville yesterday.

With the victory, Congo now have four points, the same number with current group leaders Zimbabwe and second placed Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).

Winless Liberia are bottom of the standings with a point, and they will need to beat Congo in the return leg in Monrovia next week to remain in contention.
