Manchester United-bound Manucho scored a brace to help Angola come from behind and take three points against Senegal in Tamale at the Nations Cup.
Senegal took the lead on 20 minutes when Abdoulaye Faye headed in a knock down from El-Hadji Diouf's free kick.
But Manucho headed an equaliser before scoring from close range after Senegal keeper Tony Syla flapped at a corner.
With 14 minutes left Al Ahly striker Flavio put the result beyond doubt by nodding in Yamba Asha's cross.
Angola play Tunisia in their final group game on Thursday in Tamale - with both teams on six points. A draw would be enough for both to qualify.
In the second match, Tunisia moved top of Group D after a brace from Francileudo dos Santos capped an impressive display in Tamale.
Dos Santos' diving header put Tunisia ahead and then hit the post on 31 minutes before Chaouki Ben Saada converted the rebound from 10 yards.
Two minutes later Dos Santos scored his second, pouncing on a poor back pass by South Africa's Nasief Morris.
Steven Pienaar's mazy dribble played in Katlegi Mphela for Bafana Bafana's consolation in the dying minutes.
