Tout Puissant Mazembe

TP Mazembe returned from Alexandria with a valuable point. Robert KIDIABA in stopping a penalty in the 18th minute, he preserved the 0-0 that allows Ravens to stay ahead of their group, equal with Vita Club, winner of Al Hilal (2-1) in the afternoon. Same number of points (7) and same goal average (+1) for both Congolese representatives.

In Egypt,Mazembe recorded several successful points, often having control of the game against an Egyptian team finally not so formidable. They missed a bit daring and punch to achieve more favorable situations.

It remains toimprove the draw on August 10 at Kamalondo to deal with Al Hilal from Sudan in a group where nothing is played yet.

HALF-TIMEIN ALEXANDRIA ZAMALEK 0 – MAZEMBE 0. After this first period of good quality, the Ravens deserve a draw because they in over all produce more game than their rivals. Zamalek does not impress very much while KIMWAKI partners demonstrate a considerable degree. The ASANTE test as playmaker is interesting and "El Diablo" was distilled several good balls through its technical subtlety. KIDIABA has put out the fire by stopping a penalty that could have changed the course of events.

HERE WE GO AGAININ EGYPT. Substitution with the release of Rainford KALABA replaced by Daniel ADJEI.

75th We tremble a bit as the TPM is being dominated by head kicks in its surface and Zamalek recovers a bit
