stars in Europe - Uche not angry at Nigeria World Cup snub

The Villarreal striker was not picked by Keshi, despite scoring 12 goals in the Spanish top flight this season. Uche has not played for his country since they won the Africa Cup of Nations in South Africa last year. The 30-year-old insists, however, that he holds no grudges against Keshi. "Of course as a professional footballer you'd love to represent your country, but I have never had bad words towards the national coach," Uche is widely regarded as one of Nigeria's most reliable strikers at international level and is one of his nation's all-time top scorers, with 18 goals in 45 appearances, behind Rashidi Yekini, Segun Odegbami and Yakubu Aiyegbeni.

AFRICAN CONFEDERATION CUP 2016 - GROUP STAGE - 6TH MATCHES - ALL RESULTS

AFRICAN CONFEDERATION CUP 2016
Group Stage
6th matches

Group A
23/08/16: TP Mazembe vs Young Africans 3:1 
23/08/16: Mouloudia Bejaia vs Medeama 1:0 

Group B
23/08/16: FUS Rabat vs Etoile du Sahel 0:0 
24/08/16: Kawkab Marrakech vs Al Ahly Tripoli  2:2 

 

Algerian club Mouloudia Bejaia edged into the semi-finals of the Confederation Cup with a 1:0 win over Ghana's Medeama on Tuesday.

The victory over the visiting Ghanaian side sees the Algerians through to the last four on the head-to-head rule.

A goal shortly after the break from France-born Chadian international Morgan Betorangal proved to be the winner for Bejaia.

It was only the second goal the Algerian side have scored in the six matches of the group phase.

Bejaia will meet FUS Rabat in September's semi-finals after the Moroccan side drew 0:0 with defending champions Etoile du Sahel of Tunisia in their Group B match on Tuesday.

Rabat finished top of the table, one point ahead of Etoile, who also qualify for the last four where they will take on TP Mazembe of the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Mazembe clinched top spot in Group A with a 3:1 win in Lubumbashi over Tanzania's Young Africans.

Jonathan Bolingi opened the scoring for the hosts in the 28th minute, moments before Young Africans' Vincent Chikupe was shown a straight red card for a foul that prevented a goal scoring chance.

Mazembe made the extra man count after half-time with Zambia international Rainford Kalaba scoring two more goals before Burundi's Amissi Tambwe grabbed a consolation.

On Wednesday Kawkab Marrakech of Morocco played out a 2:2 draw with bottom-of-the-table Al Ahly
