CAF CL: Enugu Rangers crash out

Enugu Rangers have crashed out of the CAF Champions League despite recording a face saving 2-1 win over Zamalek of Egypt on Sunday in the second leg of their Round of 32 clash.

Rangers were beaten 4-1 in the first leg and they needed a three-goal margin win to pull through. However, the Flying Antelopes had to wait till late in the first half to record their first goal through Tope Olusesi.

The reigning Nigeria League champions made life more difficult for themselves when they allowed Zamalek pull level through Morsi in the 71st minute.

Though Godwin Aguda restored Rangers lead, it was not enough to see Rangers pull through as they crashed out on a 5-3 aggregate scoreline
