Sadio Mané scored late as Senegal fought back to draw with DR Congo in Group D of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, moving both teams closer to the last 16.
DR Congo took the lead just after the hour mark in Tangier, when Cedric Bakambu scored from close range after Senegal goalkeeper Edouard Mendy spilled a low shot.
Senegal responded eight minutes later. Substitute Ibrahim Mbaye broke through the defence and forced a save, before Mané calmly finished the rebound to make it 1-1.
The draw leaves Senegal top of the group with four points, level with DR Congo but ahead on goal difference. Beninsit third on three points, while Botswana are bottom without a point.
The final Group D matches will be played on Tuesday, with Senegal facing Benin and DR Congo taking on Botswana.
