Libya 0 - Democratic Republic of the Congo 0

Kinshasa was the site of a match between visiting Libya and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.  Both teams knew that a win would be enough to send them to the top of Group I.  No one was able to cause the scoreboard operator to do any work in a scoreless first forty-five minutes.

In the second period, DR Congo had earned a golden opportunity to win three points as they had a penalty kick chance with twenty minutes left in the match.  However, Libya goalkeeper Mohamed Nashnush was up to the task, and his save meant that the fans in the stands went home unhappy.  The final score is Libya 0, DR Congo 0.

Cameroon 6 pts +1
Libya 5 pts +1
DR Congo 4 pts +1
Togo 1 pts -3
