Sundowns host Ahly on Saturday in a crucial rearranged match. Zamalek and Merrikh have four points each. Five-time African champions Zamalek of Egypt put a disastrous start in Group D behind them by ending the perfect record of leaders Esperance of Tunisia with a 3-1 triumph in Cairo. Simba have six points, Horoya four and Vipers one with all three still in contention for the other ticket to the knockout phase of the premier African club competition. Sabbar notched a brace and Mohamed Nahiri also scored as the three-time African champions maintained a perfect Group C record with a fourth straight victory. Walid Sabbar scored his first CAF Champions League goals as Moroccan club Raja Casablanca became the first qualifiers for the quarter-finals with a 3-1 win over Guinean outfit Horoya on Tuesday.

Morocco's Raja Casablanca qualify for the quarter-finals of the 2022/2023 CAF Champions League after winning 3-1 away to Horoya AC on Tuesday.

They thought they had scored their first goal in the group stage, but Yunus Sentamu’s effort was chalked off for offside. One of these was when Saidi Ntibazonkiza was denied by an acrobatic save by the goalkeeper after a swinging shot, before his header came off the bar. Horoya pulled one back six minutes later, the first time Raja were conceding in the group stages when Pape Ndiaye shot from inside the penalty box after a good build-up. In the second half, Raja continued dominating in spite of being the away team and they added their third in the 63rd minute. Three minutes to the break, they doubled their tally with Nahiri’s brilliantly-struck free-kick which curled beyond the wall and into the roof of the net. The visitors took a 2-0 lead at the break, with Sabbar flicking home from close range a cross from the left off a short corner-kick for the opener after six minutes.

The Venoms went down 1-0 to Tanzanian giants Simba on Tuesday evening at Benjamin Mpaka stadium in Dar-es-Salaam.

The defeat saw them remain at bottom of the group with one point while Simba who also beat the Venoms 1-0 at Kitende a week ago are second with six points. In the second half, Vipers tried to double their efforts but the hosts were too solid in defence. Substitute Abubakar Lawal’s back heel was easily dealt with by Simba goalkeeper Aisha Manula yet was their other best opportunity in the second half.

Raja Casablanca of Morocco defeated Horoya AC 3-1 on Tuesday to become the first team to advance to the quarterfinals of the 2022/2023 CAF Champions League.

In the 89th minute, Abubakar Lawal should have done better when a recycled corner-kick was brought back into the area. In the second half, Vipers came off pushing to get back into the game. One of these was when Saidi Ntibazonkiza was denied by an acrobatic save by the goalkeeper after a swinging shot, before his header came off the bar. That was when Sabbar made a daunting run on the left before cutting into the penalty box and slamming a low shot beyond the goalkeeper. Raja should have completely killed off the game with seven minutes left when they won a penalty kick. After 26 minutes, Moussa Camara, the starting keeper for Horoya, was dismissed for receiving a second yellow card after handling the ball outside of the penalty area.
