Zambia conceded after five minutes of play before levelling matters seven minutes later, going into the break with the score at 1-1.

Zambia edged ahead six minutes after the restart and grabbed their third in the 73rd minute of the match before Senegal pulled a goal back seven minutes later from a spot kick.
