However, they eliminated the Masandawana after winning 3-1 on aggregate.
On the other hand, their Tunisian counterpart played a huge role in knocking out Cairo’s other giant, Zamalek, as they qualified top of their group alongside MC Alger.
They then beat Algeria’s CR Belouizdad after their brilliant comeback as the match was decided by penalty shootouts.
