A fantastic cutback from Neves and a cool finish from Leal, the Sao Tome top scorer.

The Sao Tome held on till the end of 45 minutes but just three minutes into the 2nd half, Sierra Leone found their breakthrough and are back on level term in the 48 minutes. Thanks to a goal from Mustapha Bundu who lashed onto a spilled ball from Tavinho, the Sao Tome goalkeeper. And it is 1-1

Though Sierra Leone took charge of the game after the equalizer it was Sao tome who got the second goal.

A lovely interplay between the Sao Tome players and Luis Leal again just one minute before the half-hour mark, with a wonderful flick over the top of Ibrahim Cisse the Sierra Leone eighteen-year-old goalkeeper, gave Leal a brace and the Sao Tome regained the lead once again.

Meanwhile, the unrelenting Leone stars after hitting the goal post got their second goal in the 78th minute through Abu Komeh who tapped in a pass from Kamara.

It ended 2-2 at the Stade Adrar with Sao Tome picking their first point of the 2023 AFCON Qualifiers.

Sierra Leone and Sao Tome Principe remain 3rd and 4th respectively on the group A log irrespective of what happens between Nigeria and Guinea Bissau.
