Four-time winners TP Mazembe booked their place at the last four in grand style courtesy a 5-0 thrashing of Moghreb Tetouan on Saturday in Lubumbashi, whilst El Hilal forced a 1-1 draw against Smouha to claim the other Group A slot.

 

DR Congo giants Mazembe finished on 11 points, two more than Hilal of Sudan with Tetouan and Smouha in that order with eight and five points respectively.

Tanzania-import Mbwana Samata netted a hat-trick before a goal each from Rainford Kalaba and Roger Assale secured ‘Les Corbeuax’ top spot in the group. Samata, who has endured a tough period in front of goal this term, finally rediscovered his scoring boots to fire the Congolese into the battle for a place at the final.

 

As early as the 12th minute, the host were up after Samata toe-poked home a low shot from Yaw Frimpong for the opener.

 

Mazembe went into the break with a two-goal lead as Zambia captain Kalaba scored the second on 31 minutes with a superb shot from close range.

 

Samata made it three eight minutes after the break with a shot from his non-favourite left foot before a moment of individual brilliance from substitute Roger Assale saw him extend the lead two minutes from time.

 

The Tanzanian sealed his hat-trick in stoppage time to headline the biggest win of the Congolese this season in the continental club championship.

 

In Alexandria, Amr Abousabaa put the hosts Smouha up after 21 minutes before Nasr Ahmed grabbed the vital equalizer on 73 minutes to secure Omdurman-based Hilal a place at the semis.
