CAF Confederations Cup: Olisema Double Sends Akwa United Through
Cyril Olisema scored in each half to send visiting Akwa United through to the next round after beating Hawks of Gambia 2-0, and qualify 3-2 on aggregate.
The “Promise Keepers” needed to win with two clear goals in the second leg after last week’s surprised 1-2 defeat in Uyo in the first leg.
The diminutive striker who led Akwa’s frontline ahead of Gabriel Okechukwo broke the deadlock seven minutes before the break when he guided his effort past the rushing Adama Gassama in goal following a defensive howler by Mass Manga.
