In a match watched by seven African presidents, including the Angolan President Jose Eduardo Dos Santos, and by an estimated 47,000 spectators, Angola disappointed in allowing a massive lead to slip.

The night started with a stunning opening ceremony which included a 10 minute firework display. A minute’s silence was then held, in memory of those who died in the attack in Cabinda, before the kick-off.

The Palancas dominated 70 minutes of the match, without any sign of collapse. Players all over the field were impressive, and once Flavio had scored 2 goals, they never looked like losing.

During this evening's Copa del Rey final, won by Atletico Madrid in extra time at the Bernabeu (big win, that one), Jose Mourinho and Cristiano Ronaldo were both sent off.
