Saoura 1-0 Ittihad: Oussama’s Strike Leaves Saoura Neck-on-neck With Ittihad

Algerian representatives, JS Saoura, welcomed Al Ittihad on Sunday March 13 at the Rouiba stadium, defeating the Libyan side 1-0.

It was on the occasion of the 4th day in the CAF Confederatios cup in group B, that the Algerians got back in contention, and are now tied neck-on-neck with Al Ittihad.

It was a much needed victory for the Algerians in a bid to validate a spot in the quarter-final.

An early goal scored at the very first minute by Oussama Bellatreche was all that was needed to secure three points for the men of coach Kais Yakoubi.

It isn’t however over, as Saoura and Ittihad are all level on 7 points after 4 match days. Orlando Pirates top with 9 points, while Royal Leopards are on a league of their own with no point recorded.
