1-1 the score at half time.
The second half started in the same vein as the first period, with Angola grabbing another early goal. Porto striker Djalma Campos showed impressive trickery to cut inside from the left, only to be fouled by the trailing leg of Hamad Nizar. Manucho stepped up to expertly dispatch the penalty to the goalkeeper's bottom right, and restore his side's advantage.
However, to their credit, Sudan came back from behind once again, thanks to a gift from Jose Vunguidica. A high ball was tossed into the box and the Angola defender completely misjudged its flight, chesting straight to Ahmed Bashir, who emphatically half-volleyed home from 10 yards to grab his second goal of the match.
