TP Mazembe could only manage a 0-0 draw at home against Al Ahly in the first leg of the CAF Champions League semi-final on Saturday, April 20. Despite their dominance, the Congolese team lacked precision in front of goal in the first half. The same story continued in the second half, as the Egyptians defended their way to a hard-fought draw. TP Mazembe enjoyed 64% of possession and had 16 shots, with 3 on target (compared to Al Ahly’s 7 shots, including 1 on target). The second leg will take place in a week’s time.
In the other semi-final, Esperance Tunis will host Mamelodi Sundowns at 7:00 PM GMT.
