Flavio notched home after 12 minutes to cancel out Khaled Adenon's opener for Benin as early as the second minute.

Razak Omotoyossi scored twice in the second half as Benin had a comfortable advantage.

Manuel Loco narrowed the gap in the 78th minute but his effort was not enough to help Angola get something from the game.

Benin have ensured their progress to the next round of the qualifiers as they are on top of Group 3 with 12 points, five ahead of Angola and Uganda, who are second and third respectively.

Angola compete with Uganda to finish as the group's runners-up as both sides seek to be among the best eight second-placed teams.
