Lwazi Skosana gave the PSL side the lead midway through the first half, but Angola fought back to score twice in the second half with goals from Guilherme Afonso and Manucho Dinis, who scored the winner two minutes from the final whistle.
Palancas Negras used the game very much as an experimental outing, making a host of changes to the team in the second half.
Angola are in Group A, along with hosts South Africa, Cape Verde and Morocco.
Last week they recorded a 2-0 win in a friendly game with defending champions Zambia. On Sunday Angola will play another friendly match - against Botswana in Dobsonville.
Former Jomo Cosmos and Mamelodi Sundowns defender Thapelo Tshilo was given a trial run by the Birds.
