Senegal claimed their second win in a row over Congo on Tuesday afternoon despite controversial refereeing decisions as Premier League duo Sadio Mané and Ismail Sarr scored to secure a 1-3 away win for the Teranga Lions.
The visitors were the one to take the lead first as Villarreal forward Boulaye Dia opened the scoring in the 27th minute.
However, a controversial penalty granted to Congo destroyed their plans as Silvère Ganvoula scored from the spot to snatch the equaliser for the Red Devils before half-time.
