Al Hilal Omdurman head coach Florent Ibenge is ecstatic following a glorious 1-0 win over MC Alger in the CAF Champions League.
The Congolese tactician predicted his charges might not see much of the possession. “I think we were quite realistic. When we didn’t have the ball, we knew what MC Alger would do. And our strategy worked out well for us,” said Ibenge.
The head coach also noted his team’s defensive organization made it difficult for the home side to create scoring opportunities. “We prevented our opponent from creating opportunities. They had some but we were great in limiting them. In the previous two games they also had few scoring chances and we noted this before the tie.”
Ibenge is surprised that his side scored from a set piece but concluded he will take this huge win.
Al Hilal now leads the group with nine points after a perfect start. The Sudanese giants are on the brink of securing their place in the quarters.
