Monday’s result saw Gambia claim top spot in Group D after four rounds of matches in the campaign, while Gabon dropped to second place.
Gabon had captain Aubameyang starting but the Arsenal man could not replicate the form that saw him score the second goal in Franceville on Thursday.
The Panthers could feel hard done by their hosts whom they feel played psychological games by holding them “hostage” at the airport prior to the match.
Angola and DR Congo play in another Group D match on Tuesday but whatever the result will not affect the top two teams.
Elsewhere in Maputo, Vincent Aboubakar continued with his good form for Cameroon when he opened the scoreline in the 2-0 win over Mozambique.
