2017 CAF Confederation Cup: Club Africain Set Back for Rivers Utd




   Rivers United kicked off their opening Group A campaign of the 2017 CAF Confederation Cup with a 3-1 loss away to Club Africain of Tunisia yesterday.


    Goals from Bilel Ifa and Oussama Darragi and an own goal condemned Rivers United to defeat.

   The result leaves Rivers United in third spot in their group after FUS Rabat also defeated KCC FC 3-0 in the other Group A game.

  Ifa gave Club Africain the lead in the 23rd minute after the hosts dominated the opening minutes of the encounter.

  Club Africain made it 3-1 as Joseph Douhadji scored an own goal in the 71st minute of the encounter.

   Rivers United will face FUS Rabat in their next game in Port Harcourt before travelling to Kampala to face KCCA FC on June 4.
