What you need to know:
- Homeboyz jetted back home quietly on Tuesday as the Libyans progressed to the first round where they will face Rayon Sport of Rwanda
- In Benghazi last Sunday, Nigerian Ifeanyi Eze scored a brace, with Andoh Kelvin and Osama Belaid adding one each
- The loss means Kenyan clubs will have to wait for another season to try their luck in continental football
Kakamega Homeboyz have attributed the teams’ recent woeful display in North Africa to the punishing hot weather.
It is back to the drawing board for the Mozzart Bet Cup winners, who were handed a rather harsh footballing lesson by Libyan side Al Hilal Benghazi in the CAF Confederation Cup preliminary round, courtesy of a 4-1 second leg spanking at Martyrs February Stadium in Benghazi.
