Enyimba had their hope of flagging off the African Football League championship on a victorious note dashed on Sunday after the Peoples Elephants went down by a lone goal to visiting Wydad Athletic Club of Morocco at the Nest of Champions in Uyo.

Wydad Casablanca took control of the quarter-final contest in the opening minutes

Captain Yayha Jabrane scored the winning goal for the Red Castle from the spot eight minutes before the break

Enyimba fought hard to get back into the game but couldn’t break down the opposition defence

The Aba giants were reduced to 10-men when Alalibo Somiari was sent off late in the game.

The reverse fixture will take place next week Wednesday in Casablanca and tie which promises to be hard nut to crack for the two time Champions League winners unless of course a miracle occurs
