Manucho hits double
ALBERTO Manucho scored two goals in the second half and Flavio added another yesterday as Angola stunned Senegal 3-1 in the African Cup of Nations.
Manucho, who is waiting for a work permit before joining Manchester United, took his tally to three goals in the tournament when he scored in the 50th and 67th minutes after Abdoulaye Faye had given the Lions of Teranga the lead in the 20th.
Manucho scored with a powerful header and an opportunist finish from close range.
Poor defending of crosses from the Senegalese allowed Flavio to score with another header in the 77th minute.
Angola have four points in Group D, while Senegal remain rooted on one.
