It is Congo Kinshasa who started the game well but failed to capitalise on the chances created.
Two minutes after the break, they got their breakthrough. A good ball from the left was not cleared and it fell to Ushindi who curled it past the goalkeeper to ensure his team go top of the group with maximum points from the one game played.
The scorer was later substituted in the 61st minute with Kadima Kabangu taking his place.
In an earlier match at the same venue, Libya and Niger played to a goalless draw.
The North Africans came into the match as favourites owing to their recent run against the West African outfit. The Mediterranean Knights had defeated the Ménas twice in their last four friendly games, with the remaining two meetings ending in draws.
