CAF matchday 9 recap
[MON 30 MAR 2009 – 07:09:51 UTC]
A quick summary of action around the CAF second group phase on the weekend of SAT 28-SUN 29 MAR 2009.
» Togo 01-00 Cameroon: After missing a month of action due to injury, Emmanuel ADEBAYOR made a triumphant return with an eleventh minute goal that started Togo on the right foot in Group A. Togo played the match in Accra, Ghana to complete the three match home ban imposed due to crowd trouble at a qualifying match for the 2008 African Nations Cup.
» Morocco 01-02 Gabon: The Black Panthers are equal with Togo atop Group A after defeating Morocco. Pierre-Emerick AUBAMEYANG and Roguy MEYE scored late in the first half, and Gabon withstood a late attack from Morocco to earn three points.
» Burkina Faso 04-02 Guinea: Mahamoudou KERE and Alain TRAORE scored for les Etalons in the first half, and though Guinea tried to climb back in, Moumouni DAGANO added two more for Burkina Faso, who become joint leaders of Group E with Côte d’Ivoire.
» Mozambique 00-00 Nigeria: The first of two surprising Sunday draws was in Maputo, where Dario MONTEIRO headed into the goal twice. But both were called back, and the Mambas had to be satisfied with their point, which leaves them two behind Tunisia in Group B.
» Egypt 01-01 Zambia: Amr ZAKI put the home side ahead in the first half, only for Dennis BANDA to score the equaliser in the second. With Rwanda and Algeria playing to a draw the previous day, favoured Egypt are now tied with all of their Group C rivals.
