Togo and DR Congo Saturday played a
goalless draw at the Cup of Nations finals, leaving the Togolese
on two points, one better than DR Congo and Cote d'Ivoire, on a
point each.
In a low-keyed encounter at Sikasso counting for the second day of
play in Round One of the Cup of Nations finals underway in Mali,
Togo and DR Congo tied 0-0 in a tournament already noted for a
paucity of goals.
The Congolese, who were off to a bad start losing 0-1 to defending
champions Cameroon, now rank at the bottom of Group C together
with Cote d'Ivoire, while Cameroon tops the pool on 6 points from
two wins.
The Cameroonians are already through to the quarterfinals, while
Togo, DR Congo and Cote d'Ivoire must win their last match to move
onto the second round of the tournament.
Togo has a match to go with Cameroon, while DR Congo would on the
last day take on Cote d'Ivoire.
In the last match scheduled for Saturday, Senegal is currently
locking horns with Zambia in Bamako.
