AFRICA: Coton Sport Out Of Champions League

ES Setif progressed into the Group phase of the CAF Champions League with their 1-0 victory over Coton Sport in their match at the Roumdé Adjia Stadium in Garoua on Sunday afternoon.

The Algerian outfit will progress on a 2-0 aggregate after striker El Hedi Belameiri, who scored in the first leg, netted the only goal of the match in the 11th minute.

Kheireddine Madoui’s men outperformed the Cameroonians in both legs of the match-up to ensure their spot in the final eight of the competition. This is the first time in four years that the 1988 African champions will feature in the group stages and it is one they will be looking to progress even further from.


The Black Eagles will join Al-Ahly Benghazi, TP Mazembe, CS Sfaxien and AS Vita Club, who qualified on Saturday after defeating South African outfit Kaizer Chiefs 3-2 on aggregate.

Coton Sport’s elimination from the tournament comes as a blow after they made it through to the semifinals of last year’s edition of the tournament.

They do have a second chance at doing something on the continental stage as they have a chance to progress to the Group stage of the CAF Confederation Cup, whose play-offs’ draw will take place in Cairo on Tuesday.
