Libya delivered an impressive performance this Sunday in Kinshasa against DR Congo, securing a goalless draw against the Leopards. Despite playing in the fervent atmosphere of the Martyrs stadium, the Knights of the Mediterranean, led by goalkeeper Nashnush, successfully held off the DR Congo’s attempts to score for the entire 90 minutes.
Despite the intense match, the DR Congo received a potentially game-changing opportunity when the referee awarded them a generous penalty. However, Dioko Kaliyutuka, eager to convert the penalty, faced a formidable challenge in Nashnush, who thwarted the attempt.
In the same group, Cameroon emerged victorious against Togo with a 2-1 win. Following this matchday, Libya climbed to the second spot in Group I with 5 points, with Cameroon leading at 6 points and DR Congo closely following with 4 points. The Eperviers find themselves at the bottom of the group with 1 point from 3 matches
