Enyimba's coach Paul Aigbogun,has a huge mountain to climb. |
This has been made more difficult by South African giants Mamelodi Sundowns ,who got a shocking and vital away victory against Egyptian top side,Zamalek,Mamelodi won 2-1 at the Petro Sport Stadium in Cairo Sunday night to make two wins in two games and now have six points to top group B.
Samuel Tiyani Mabunda put Mamelodi ahead on the 18th minutes and Mohammed Ibrahim equalised for Zamalek in the 37th minute. Zimbabwe export,Khama Billiant was brilliant with his move and poked the winning goal for Mamelodi on the 67th minute .
The ‘Brazilians’ as Mamelodi are called ,host Zamalek in the return leg in a fortnight in Pretoria, where a win
will seal their place at the semis.
Zamalek have three points with their victory in Nigeria against Enyimba,and leaving the "Peoples Elephants as Enyimba are known with no points in their bargain.
Enyimba who stood bye on Sunday will play away to Zamalek in Egypt on August 14th and then welcome group leaders Mamelodi in Nigeria,on the 23rd of August.
