Enyimba FC Vs Raja Casablanca:CAF Confederations Cup (0 - 1) On 3rd October 2018 by dominique(f): 11:10pm On Oct 02, 2018 |
Enyimba coach Usman Abdallah has said the People’s Elephant are ready to face three-time CAF Champions League winners Raja Casablanca of Morocco in the first leg of the CAF Confederation Cup semi-finals in Aba on Wednesday. Raja scored four times in away ties in the group stages and scored twice at CARA Brazzaville as they defeated the Congolese side 3-1 on aggregate in the quarter-finals. Their 22-year-old striker Mahmoud Benhalib has scored 11 goals so far in the competition. Enyimba coach Usman Abdallah has said the People’s Elephant are ready to face three-time CAF Champions League winners Raja Casablanca of Morocco in the first leg of the CAF Confederation Cup semi-finals in Aba on Wednesday. Raja scored four times in away ties in the group stages and scored twice at CARA Brazzaville as they defeated the Congolese side 3-1 on aggregate in the quarter-finals. Their 22-year-old striker Mahmoud Benhalib has scored 11 goals so far in the competition. Raja met Enyimba in the 2011 CAF Champions League, with the Nigerians beating them 2-0 in Aba before securing a goalless draw in Casablanca. Abdallah told our correspondent that the clash would be tough but said the seven-time Nigerian league champions would be up to the task on Wednesday. “Raja are a top side in Africa and they have a rich continental history and experience. They play good and compact football but we are not scared of playing them,” he said. Source: Punch 1 Like |

Enyimba have reported Raja Casablanca to CAF. 1) Raja Casablanca were due to arrive the Murtala Muhammad Airport in Lagos on Monday, so Enyimba sent officials to Lagos to receive them and facilitate their trip to Aba. 2) Raja were on their way to Nigeria on an Air Maroc flight when officials of the airline informed them that Port Harcourt is closer to Aba than Lagos, therefore they would fly to Port Harcourt instead. 3) The airline gave an excuse to other passengers and flew to Port Harcourt instead of Lagos. 4) Raja Casablanca landed in Port Harcourt and their players made posts on social media in which they claimed that Enyimba abandoned them at Port Harcourt International Airport. 5) Meanwhile, Enyimba officials were waiting for them in Lagos. 6) So Enyimba has reported them to CAF. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

2019elections: You don't understand. Air Maroc does not usually fly to Port Harcourt and Raja had informed Enyimba that they were going to arrive Lagos on an Air Maroc flight on Monday. That was the agreement. How do you want Enyimba to know that Raja would land in Port Harcourt?? 10 Likes 2 Shares |

Re: Enyimba FC Vs Raja Casablanca:CAF Confederations Cup (0 - 1) On 3rd October 2018 by naptu2: 8:02am On Oct 03, 2018 |
There's a reason that Enyimba have reported Raja to CAF. My dad led many Nigerian teams to North Africa in the 1970s and '80s and he told me about the antics of the north Africans. He said that he usually called the Nigerian ambassador in the host country days before any match. He would tell the ambassador to book a hotel and hire a bus for the team. This is because (1) fans of the north African team would usually camp outside the visiting teams hotel and they would make a lot of noise with loud speakers and drums, to ensure that players of the visiting team do not sleep at night. 2) They would usually book hotels in the red light district for the visiting team so that their players would be distracted by prostitutes. 3) Matches are usually held at night and in towns that are close to the Mediterranean, rather than their home town, so that the visiting players would be bothered by the cold. 4) Bags of urine are sometimes thrown at the reserve bench I guess that Enyimba believe that Raja is trying to create animosity in the minds of its supporters so that they will give Enyimba a terrible time when Enyimba goes to Casablanca. 7 Likes 1 Share |

I look forward to when African clubsides will gain as much attention and viewership as their European counterparts. Sports all over the world have become an empire that contributes a large chunk to economies. Thanks to 2baba's (Plantashun boys) & de others who transformed de Nigerian music industry & diverted our attention from foreign music. De same can be done in sports. 4 Likes |

majamajic: It wasn't Enyimba that sent Raja to Lagos. The visiting team is meant to inform the host team of their travel plans and the home team would make arrangements based on the visiting teams plans. Raja told Enyimba that they would arrive Lagos on Monday, so Enyimba sent officials to Lagos to receive them. Air Maroc do not usually fly to Port Harcourt 5 Likes 1 Share |

MrPresident1: The point is that it was not Enyimba's plan. Enyimba are not responsible for the visiting team's arrival in Nigeria. It's the job of the visiting team to inform Enyimba when and how they will arrive then Enyimba will pick them up. The problem is not that Raja arrived in Port Harcourt. The problem is that they did not inform Enyimba that they will arrive in Port Harcourt on Monday 3 Likes 1 Share |

2019elections: So how come they never deemed it fit to inform their host of a change in their plans. Though from Ph to Aba is closer, they should have pre-informed Enyimba of a change in plans. Btw the road from Ph to Aba is a death trap, the ugliest. Sometimes if I see people supporting any Government in power I cringe within me. All these politicians are one and the same, they don’t care about anything but their pocket. 2 Likes 1 Share |
