FC Ifeanyiubah out of CAF Confederation Cup

By Taofeek Babalola

Nigeria representative FC Ifeanyiubah were eliminated from the CAF Confederation Cup on Sunday after losing 3-0 on penalties to Al Masry of Egypt in Port Said.


Ifeanyin Ubah won the first leg encounter 1-0 last weekend in Anambra but Al Masry beat them 1-0 in the return leg match on Sunday. A penalty shootout thus determined the tie after aggregate scores stood at 1-1.

Star striker Godwin Obaje was not be available for FC Ifeanyiubah.


Obaje did not travel with the team on Thursday after financier of the club Patrick Ubah had told reporters at Nnewi last Sunday after his side's slim 1-0 win in the first leg match that Obaje will be available for the return leg match.
