Despite recording a relatively positive result in the first leg, Nigeria champions Enyimba International has lost out to the CAF Champions League.
The Nigerian side looked promising after scoring 3 away goals against Ahli Benghazi in the first leg as the game ended 3-4.
The second leg game played at the Enyimba International Stadium in Aba started with the host dictating the pace of the game.
The away side decided to sit deep and wait to get the Nigerians on the counter but the game looked so tight in the first stanza.
The People’s Elephants started the second half on the front foot pressing hard to break the deadlock but the backline of the Libyan stood their ground
George Owen had the biggest opportunity of the half in the 75th minute but wasted it as the tension of the home crowd reached the crescendo.
The referee added the 6 minutes but the 2-time African was unable to get the required goal as the game ended goalless and Benghazi progressed 4-3 on aggregate.
