Al Masry Brush Aside Enugu Rangers In Confederation Cup

By Daily Sports on December 9, 2019

Enugu Rangers made it two Caf Confederation Cup defeats on the spin as they bowed 4-2 to Al Masry on Sunday.

The Flying Antelopes went to Egypt with the ambition of breathing life into their campaign after a 3-1 home defeat to Pyramids, however, a pitiable first half saw them return home empty-handed.

Al Masry made their intentions to win clear after taking a fifth-minute lead through

Nigeria’s Austin Amutu at the Alexandria Stadium.

Ahmed Yasser made it two for the Boss of the Canal in the 27th minute before Muftah Taktak added to Rangers’ misery three minutes into the second half.

While it looked like the Nigerians would return home with basket full of goals conceded following Hassan Ali’s 83rd-minute strike, Eziekwe Chinoso and Saidou Simpore’s own goal gave the visitors something to cheer about.

Following this latest defeat, Salisu Yusuf’s men are at the base of Group A with no points after two matches, while the Egyptians lead with six points from the same number of matches.

Rangers would be hoping to bounce back when they visit Mauritania’s FC Nouadhibou on December 29 in Nouakchott. (Goal)
