Brentford's Wissa earns DR Congo draw with Zambia in AFCON opener

Kings Kangwa lobbed Zambia into an early lead in the Ivorian coastal city of San-Pedro after Congolese goalkeeper Lionel Mpasi came racing out of his area. But Wissa, who has four goals in the English Premier League this season for Brentford, finished from close range to restore parity before the half-hour mark, and that was how it finished.

The draw between the two neighbours, both former African champions, came after heavily-fancied Group F rivals Morocco started their campaign with a 3-0 defeat of 10-man Tanzania earlier in the same stadium. Zambia, coached by Avram Grant, were making their comeback after missing the last three editions of the AFCON and were looking for their first win at the tournament since they lifted the trophy against the odds in 2012.

With Herve Renard, the coach of that triumphant side, watching from the stands, the Chipolopolo were leading midway through the first half.
