Democratic Republic of Congo’s domestic league is now AS Vita Club’s to lose at this point. The Kinshasa-based side obtained a crucial road victory in Monday’s Linafoot matchup against fifth-placed Sanga Balende, winning 0-1 to boost their lead to five points over rivals TP Mazembe with each team only having two games left to play. Congolese national team forward Fiston Mayele provided the essential goal in the 25th minute courtesy of sloppy passing in the defense from Sanga Balende, with Mayele only having to tap the ball into an empty net after the goalkeeper was caught in possession.
