Warri Wolves have qualified for the play-off of the Caf Confederation Cup as they won 1-0 against MK Etancheite of Democratic Republic of Congo at the 80,000 capacity Stade des Martyrs on Friday evening to advance 3-1 on aggregate.
A last minute goal from Oghenekaro Etebo ensured that Wolves qualified for the next round and thus secured their second road win of the campaign in volatile Kinshasa
Wolves led 2-1 after the first leg played two weeks ago in Warri but the club from DR Congo threatened fire and brimstone after they almost left Nigeria with a draw.
The last Nigerian club on the continent strove and puffed before they secured the win they needed to qualify for the playoffs spot at the expense of their hosts in Kinshasa.
Wolves altered their formation and some of the players they used in the first leg and this rattled their hosts who expected their foes to parade same set of players that they played against in Warri.
Abu Azeez, Ojo Mine, Ikechukwu Ibenegbu, Azubuike Egwuekwe, Michael Egbeta and Onyekachi Okafor were some of the new introductions that rendered MK Etancheite powerless in Kinshasa.
They have qualified for the next round and will hit the group stage if they beat their next foes-one from the drop outs of the Caf Champions league in the second round.
Wolves are yet to be beaten in this year’s competition after six games.
