Olunga scored fabulous double as Kenya beat Tanzania in thriller
Michael Olunga scored twice as Kenya came from behind to beat Tanzania 3-2 in an Africa Cup of Nations thriller.
Kashiwa Reysol forward Olunga drilled in a late winner, having earlier made it 1-1 with a superb overhead kick and also heading against the crossbar.
Tanzania had gone ahead twice through Simon Msuva's tap-in and Mbwana Samatta's effort for a half-time lead.
Johanna Omolo flicked in a header at the near post for Kenya, before Olunga struck with just 10 minutes remaining.
The result moves Kenya level on three points with Senegal, who were beaten 1-0 by leaders Algeria, while Tanzania remain in search of their first victory in the tournament.
Kenya play Senegal and Tanzania face Algeria in the final group games on Monday.
