Watford's Kayembe on target in DR Congo win

Edo Kayembe, the Watford midfielder, scored his third senior international goal as DR Congo secured a 3-1 victory over Sierra Leone in their Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match on Thursday. The 28-year-old made it 3-0 in the 58th minute with a left-foot shot, before the visitors managed a late consolation goal. This win sees DR Congo top their group with a perfect record of three wins from three games, leading them five points clear of Zimbabwe and Equatorial Guinea.

Kayembe, who has scored three goals in his 49th senior appearance for DR Congo, will now look to lead his team in their next fixture against Sierra Leone on Tuesday, 17 November.
