The final games of Group C in the CAF Confederation Cup provided a dramatic finish, with both matches going down to the wire.
In Angola, Academica do Lobito held Club Africain to a 1-1 draw, a result that keeps their slim hopes of qualification alive. Meanwhile, in Nigeria, Rivers United secured a thrilling 2-1 victory over Dreams FC (Ghana) thanks to a late winner.
This win secures Rivers United’s passage to the quarter-finals alongside Dreams FC. The Nigerian side can now proudly claim the title of “Pride of Rivers,” and their victory also guarantees the Nigerian Professional Football League (NPFL) four slots in next season’s continental competitions.
