The
two clubs representing Nigeria in this year’s CAF Champions League,
Kano Pillars and Enyimba International have both qualified for the next
round of the competition after recording victories at the weekend.

While Pillars
progressed by defeating Liberia’s Mighty Barolle 1-0 on Saturday,
Enyimba secured a berth in the round of 16 with a comfortable 2-0
victory over reigning Congolese league champions Saint Michel du Ouenze
at Enyimba International stadium yesterday.

Pillars will play
either Wydad Casablanca of Morocco or Ghana’s Aduana, while Enyimba
will play either Union Sportive de Bitam (Gabon) or Les Astres de
Douala (Cameroun) in the next round of the competition.

Enyimba is the only
Nigerian team to have won the CAF Champions League and they are
confident that they can repeat the feat this season again.

Wydad Casablanca of
Morocco will take on Ghana’s Aduana, while Union Sportive de Bitam
(Gabon) will face Les Astres de Douala (Cameroun) next weekend, to
determine who will progress – to face the Nigerian teams.

Back in the local league, the Aba Elephants will be up against
Heartland on Wednesday in a rescheduled match, the team is currently
7th on the log after starting out the season on a shaky note
