Enugu Rangers secures 1-0 Victory Over Sagrada Esperanca in CAF Champions League

Enugu Rangers

Kazeem Ogunleye netted the decisive goal as Nigerian champions Enugu Rangers secured a 1-0 victory over Angola’s Sagrada Esperanca in the first leg of their CAF Champions League second preliminary round clash in Uyo on Friday.

Ogunleye’s strike came late in the match, finding the back of the net just 12 minutes before the final whistle.

Despite the win, Fidelis Ilechukwu’s team continued to show difficulty in converting chances, a problem that also plagued them in their previous round against US Zilimadjou of Comoros.
