Adebayor wins for Togo g

Swaziland upset Guinea 2-1 in a horror debut for former France World Cup great Luis Fernandez.

Diminutive attacker Tony Tsabedze scored both goals for the unfancied Southern Africans in a Group L clash, hosted in Casablanca, Morocco because Guinea are banned from staging international matches following the Ebola outbreak in the country.

Guinea's defeat capped a bad first week in charge for new coach Fernandez, who banned five players from internationals for failing to heed his call-up.
