Victor Obinna and Herita Ilunga were both winners in CAF 2012 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying action on Sunday.
Obinna's Nigeria were 4-0 home winners against Ethiopia while Ilunga's DR Congo triumphed 3-0 at home to Mauritius. Nigeria's success means they are just a point behind Group B leaders Guinea while the Congolese have a harder task as they sit five points behind Group E's runaway side Senegal, who had Demba Ba to thank for a 1-0 win against fellow African heavyweights Cameroon on Saturday.
