Senegal produced a first-half demolition of DR Congo to register a comfortable 4-0 win and move top of Group A.

Forwards Mama Diop and Ngeunar Ndiaye both scored two goals before half-time as the power­ful Lionesses of Teranga frontline ripped into a fragile and disorganised rearguard.

The first three goals, all netted in­side the opening 22 minutes, all came from simple long balls in behind the DR Congo defence.

The West Africans cruised through a goalless second half in which their opponents were marginally more competitive, with both sides hitting the woodwork.
