Guinea-Bissau’s Mama Balde scored the only goal to honor his team 29 minutes into the game, pushing them to the top of the group with seven points and increasing their chances of playing in Ivory Coast next year. They won 5-1 against Sao Tome and Principe and drew 2-2 against Sierra Leone.

Meanwhile, the Eagles defeated Sierra Leone 2-1 and Sao Tome and Principe 10-0 in their first game.
