Share

2017 Africa Cup hosts Gabon warmed-up for Tuesday’s friendly date against Zambia with a resounding home win over Sudan.

Gabon crushed Sudan 4-0 in Libreville in one of two scheduled friendlies they have during international match week.

Malick Evouna of Al Ahly netted a brace in the 29th and 67th minutes while Mangasport midfielder Samson Mbingui scored in-between in the 61st minute.

Borussia Dortmund striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang ended the rout in the 70th minute.

However, both sides had players sent off when Bordeaux midfielder Andre Biyogo Poko and Sudan’s Salah Ibrahim were sent off in the 76 minute.

Zambia will host Gabon at National Heroes Stadium in an 18h00 kick-off.

Chipolopolo fly back home this evening for the friendly immediately after their 2017 Group E qualifier against Kenya in Nairobi to prepare for the home date against Gabon.
