Enyimba to Play Smouha in Champions League 1st Round

Enyimba International FC are through to the first round of the Caf
Champions League after a 1-0 win over Buffles du Bourgou in Benin
Republic.

Andrew Abalogu's match-winner saw the Peoples Elephants claim a 4-0
aggregate victory against the Beninese champions in Parakou on Sunday.

The two-time champions will now face Egyptian side Smouha in the first
round. Coach Khadiri Ikhana side will be at home in the first round
first leg slated for the weekend of March 13, with the returned leg
scheduled for three weeks later.

Debutantes Smouha progressed into the Champions League 1/16 round
following a 5-3 penalty shootout win over Libya's Ahly Tripoli in
Alexandria. Both sides were tied 1-1 after 180 minutes, but the last
season's runners-up in the Egyptian Premier League scraped a shootout
victory.
