Enyimba on the brink of CCL elimination

By Daily Sports on July 18, 2016

Enyimba are on the verge of a humiliating group stage exit in the 2016 Caf Champions League after Mamelodi Sundowns got a 2-1 against Zamalek in Cairo.

Goals from Khama Billiat and Tiyani Mabunda were all the South Africans needed to secure their second victory at a bounce – and now top Group B with six points.

The Brazilians who had their victory against ES Setif cancelled owing to the Algerians’ disqualification from the competition now need a point at least from their remaining two games to qualify for the semi-final of the competition.

Enyimba’s campaign got off to a stuttering start when they lost 1-0 at home to the Egyptians in Port Harcourt. Their second game against Pitso Mosimane’s side in South Africa also ended in defeat leaving them with no point from two games.

As it stands, Paul Aigbogun’s men must win their remaining games convincingly to stand a chance of reaching the knockout phase at they hope to lift their third title.

First, they must negotiate their way past wounded Zamalek on August 14 at the Petro Sport Stadium, Cairo before going all out for victory against Sundowns in August at the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium, Port Harcourt.
