Noble effort takes Enyimba to CAF Cup group draw Johannesburg (AFP) – Goalkeeper John Noble starred as Enyimba squeeezed past Rivers United Sunday in an all-Nigerian CAF Confederation Cup showdown to secure a place in the group draw.
A Fortune Omoniwari goal just before half-time in Port Harcourt earned hosts Rivers a 1-0 victory in the second leg of a playoff and levelled the aggregate score at 1-1.
After each side converted four penalties, Rivers’ Israel Emmanuel had his kick saved by Noble, who then fired past former Enyimba goalkeeper Theophilus Afelokhai for a 5-4 shootout triumph.
Afelokhai moved to Rivers after losing out to Noble as first choice at twice CAF Champions League winners Enyimba.
