There was a lot of time wasting, falling and feigning of injuries by players of US Bitam particularly their goalkeeper so the 7 minutes injury time added by the Referee was justified. . ._{as if it's the first time such will happen in football} AND besides who tell you sey na penalty we take score our winning goal?

Hope you won't be making these kinda lame and silly excuses on the 17th

ENYIMBA LEAVE IT LATE TO DOWN BITAM

A fantastic header, seven minutes into added time gave Enyimba a 2-1 victory over Union Sportive du Bitam in the Caf Champions League clash at the Enyimba Stadium on Sunday.

The win completed 2-1 aggregate victory for the Nigerian club.

It was a physically and mentally draining game for players and officials of both clubs as Enyimba dominated the opening exchanges.

Josiah Maduabuchi, Nonso ‘Lala’ Elias and Victor Barnabas all came close but it was defender, Valentine Nwabili who came closest to opening the scoring with a sumptuous free kick from twenty five yards in the 27th minute.

The effort was headed for the top right hand corner but Biteski, in goal for Bitam produced exceptional reflexes to deny the former Esperance left back from registering his name on the score sheet.

Biteski continued to have a great afternoon, producing a string of fine saves to deny the Enyimba players who seemed intent on putting the tie to bed before the break.

The Aba Elephants were hit with a body blow on the half hour as a rare Bitam foray upfront culminated in a freak goal.

Behzah’s effort, fortuitously delivered, was the completely against the run of play and it stunned the home side into more desperate forays into the Bitam half.

The half ended 1-0 in favour of the visitors and despite minor incidents involving the Bitam substitutes and pockets of Enyimba fans, the second half got underway with the home side intensifying their efforts to level the scores.

They got their reward on 53 minutes as Barnabas sent Biteski the wrong way from the spot after Phillip Auta was tripped by Salif Keita.

Enyimba still needed one more goal to advance but Bitam were having none of it as the Gabonese players defended manfully, knowing the prize was within touching distance.

They seemed to have done enough as scores still stood 1-1 until deep into stoppage time when Enyimba won a corner.

It was to be the last kick of the game but the Elephants saved the best for last as David Tyavkase’s corner was met by a powerful Josiah Maduabuchi header to send the packed stadium into raptures.

“It was a very tough match,” Chairman of Enyimba, Felix Anyansi Agwu told SuperSport.com.

‘We never underrated our opponents but these things happen. “We are grateful we went through and we just hope we go far in the competition,” he said.

The Aba side thus proceeds into the third round where they will me the winners of the JCA Treichville (Ivory Coast) v Al Ittihad tie.
