Florent Ibenge also lead DR Congo to third place at the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations
DR Congo qualified for the final of the African Nations Championship (CHAN) by beating Guinea 5-4 on penalties.
After an entertaining goalless 90 minutes Jonathan Bolingi scored what he thought was the winner in the first period of extra-time.
But Guinea’s Ibrahima Sory Sankhon made it 1-1 in the final seconds of the game to send the tie to penalties.
In the shootout Congo’s Ley Matampi saved from Mohamed Youla to send Florent Ibenge’s side to the final.
The victory secures DR Congo’s place in Sunday’s final to decide the winners of CHAN 2016.
They will face either Mali or Ivory Coast, who meet in Thursday’s semi-final.
DR Congo’s best chances in the first half fell to Meshack Elia, who sent a freekick wide of the target, and then to Doxa Gikanji, who scored a spectacular goal against Rwanda in the quarter-finals.
This time though, his shot from the edge of the area was pushed away by goalkeeper Abdoulaziz Keita.
