Against the run of play, Kings Kangwa made the most of a defensive mix-up to put Zambia ahead in the 23rd minute. Just four minutes later, the Leopards were level in the Group F match thanks to a close-range equaliser from Brentford forward Yoane Wissa. DR Congo were awarded a second-half penalty for handball, but the decision was overturned after a video review.
Earlier in Group F, Morocco proved their credentials as pre-tournament favourites, opening with a comfortable 3-0 win over Tanzania. DR Congo made the brighter start in an entertaining contest, dominating the early exchanges, but it was the 2012 champions who took the lead in humid conditions in San Pedro.
