Warri Wolves’ unbeaten run in the CAF Confederation Cup was brought to an end Sunday evening as they crashed 3-0 to Athlétic Club Léopards de Dolisie in the first leg play-off round played at the Stade Denis Sassou Nguesso, Dolisie. Coach Paul Aigbogun’s men must now score four goals without conceding any in the second leg to qualify for the CAF Confederation Cup group stage.

Goals from Mahamane Cissé, Bokuoa and Prestone Lakolo were all the Congolese needed to bring the Nigerians down to their feet in Dolisie.

The hosts began the rout in the eight minute through Cisse who took advantage of the Nigerians shaky backline. Paul Aigbogun’s men attempted an equalizer but could not break down the solid backline of the hosts who took a goal lead to the half time break.

On resumption of the second half, Bokuoa and Lakolo sealed the win for AC Leopards as all efforts from the visitors to reduce the deficit proved futile.

Warri Wolves must now win the second leg 4-0 in Warri if they hope to qualify for the round robin stage of the tournament.
