 Enyimba trash Black Bulls 4-1 in Uyo.


Enyimba Football Club of Aba beat the Black Bulls of Mozambique 4-1 on Sunday in a CAF Confederation Cup match held in the Akwa Ibom State capital.

Enyimba, which had lost 3-0 to the Black Bulls in December 2024 in Maputo, recorded an emphatic result to the joy of its fans.


The Elephants took the lead in the 6th minute, with Joseph Atule opening the scoring, but a poor defence allowed the visiting team to equalise in the 12th minute through E. Ifoni.


However, Ifeanyi Ihemekwele restored Enyimba’s lead in the 45th minute, with the first half ending at 2-1.


The second half saw Enyimba adopt a more attacking approach in search of additional goals and their efforts yielded results in the 67th minute, as former Super Eagles striker and new signing Brown Ideye increased Enyimba’s lead to 3-1.


Victory was sealed for the Elephants in the 89th minute when Joseph Atule scored his second goal of the match, wrapping up the game at 4-1.
