Luanda – Angola finished third in the African Cup of Nations for Amputee Football after beating Tanzania by 4-0 on Saturday to increase to three the number of bronze medals the national team have won in the event.

Angola also finished third in 2009 and 2011 tournaments.

The game for the third and fourth positions was completely dominated by the Angolans against a hosting team that was unable to respond.

The goals were scored by Sabino (twice), Hilário and Chiquete.

The Angola national team were runners-up in 2013 and crowned champions in 2019 when the country hosted the competition.

Ghana won this year's edition after beating Liberia 3-2 in the final of the competition held in Tanzania.
