CAF Champions League: Akwa Utd, Rivers Utd On The Verge Of Qualification by DoggoneDogg(op): 8:19pm On Sep 12, 2021

By Adeboye Amosu

Friday Ubong scored a late winner as Akwa United secured a slim 1-0 win against Algerian side CR Belouizdad in the first leg of the CAF Champions League preliminary round clash at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo on Sunday.

The hosts dominated play but wasted a number of goal scoring opportunities in the game.

Ubong unleashed a powerful shot four minutes from time to hand the Promise Keepers a crucial advantage going into the second leg next week.

In another CAF Champions League game, Rivers United beat Tanzania’s Young Africans 1-0 away at the Benjamin Mkapa National Stadium, Dar es Salaam.

Samuel Omodumuke scored the winning goal for the visitors in the 52nd minute.

The return leg will take place next week Sunday at the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium, Port Harcourt.

It's better to watch from afar cause when you expect them to surprise you is actually when they failed.

Just look how lush the pitch is.

Instead of our national team to be taken here for world cup qualifier there were taken to that potato pitch in Lagos.

Can you really watch a Nigerian team play for 90mins? Have you tried it before?

Those guys don't keep the ball on the ground. They don't complete up to 15 passes at a go. Their play is always extreme, either too narrow or too wide.

I've watched them before, won't be doing it anytime soon until there's a massive improvement in play style.

There are some quality players in the league though but the coaches are just too afraid to play an expansive, entertaining style because of the fear of failure/losing!!!
