Cara Brazzaville thrashed Enyimba in a CAF Confederation Cup game on Wednesday.

Goals from Racine Louamba, Cabwey Kivutuka, and Dicha Liema helped the Congolese side register a comprehensive 3-0 victory.

The People’s Elephants started on a positive note in the fifth minute as a gilt-edged opportunity presented itself to Wasiu Alalade, but he fired over the bar.

Subsequently, Nelson Ogbonnaya saw his header get cleared off the line.

But in the space of six minutes, the two-time CAF Champions League winners were taken apart by the Congolese side.

In the 14th minute, the hosts took the lead through Louamba who reacted quickest to a rebound and headed home.

The home side dominated proceedings after that and doubled their lead in the 17th minute when Kivutuka sprinted onto a through ball to slot a low shot past Fatau Dauda.

The Congolese team controlled the remainder of the game but could not add to the scoreline before the final whistle.
