On Tuesday, however, it was his moment to shine, as he netted his side’s second goal and assisted the third in a 4-0 win over Djoliba. He was also named the Man of the Match in the game with a Sofascore rating of 8.4.
Despite the heavy win, ES Tunis find themselves in second place in Group D after Pyramids hammered Sagrada Esperanca 5-1 in the other group fixture.
Meanwhile, Percy Tau came off the bench in Al Ahly’s 4-2 win over Stade d’Abidjan, but had little impact on the game.
The CAFCL record champions sit in top spot of Group C, based on the better goal difference over Orlando Pirates, who beat Khanyisa Mayo’s CR Belouizdad 2-1, with the South African forward netting his first goal for his new club.
