Club Africain relaunches suspense in Champions League

In Group C of the CAF Champions’ League, Club Africain created a sensation by winning 1-0 against Algeria's CS Constantine. At the Chahid-Hamlaoui stadium, the Tunisians brought down the group leader, who needed just one point to qualify for the quarter-finals. Unfortunately, in a very rough game with 9 yellow cards including 6 for the visitors, Denis Lavagne's players failed to get the draw. The executioner's name is Bassirou Compaore. The Burkinabe scored the only goal of the match before the break after a scramble in the Algerian penalty area. CS Constantine, who dominated in the second half, failed to break through the Tunisian defence. Victor Zvenka's men left with 3 precious points and are now in third place in Group C with 7 points.

**Another draw for Mazembe  **Mazembe remains second in the group with 8 points. A lead that melts following the new draw conceded by the Congolese against Ismaily. In Borg el Arab, however, the Ravens opened the scoring just before half-time with a goal from Elia Meschak. The TP Mazembe striker took advantage of a feverish Egyptian defence to take a good cross from the right with his foot. The Locals will be able to level the score after the interval with a fine personal effort from winger Abdel-Rahman Magdi. His left-footed shot deceived the Congolese keeper. This draw did not help either team: Ismaily was eliminated and Mazembe saw Club Africain return to a point behind. The last day of this group will see CS Constantine challenge TP Mazembe in Lubumbashi.
