CAF World Cup Qualifying Re- Cap:-: Ethiopia complete comeback to progress


Ethiopia overturned a deficit to Sao Tome and Principe
and Tanzania survived a scare against Malawi in the
CAF World Cup qualifiers.

Ethiopia bounced back from their surprise 1-0 defeat to Sao
Tome and Principe to earn a commanding 3-0 win in the second
leg of their World Cup qualifying first-round tie on Sunday.

Dawit Fekadu opened the scoring inside the first minute and
Gatoch Panom's penalty just after half-time put Ethiopia ahead
on aggregate.

Sao Tome fought for a leveller but Ramkel Lok's strike with 15
minutes to play secured the victory in Addis Ababa.

Kenya eased their way into the next round after a 0-0 draw with
Mauritius in Nairobi.

Bobby Williamson's side triumphed 5-2 in the first leg and
played out a simple stalemate on Sunday to progress.

Tanzania, meanwhile, survived a scare to progress 2-1 on
aggregate despite going down 1-0 to Malawi in their trip to
Blantyre.

Blue Eagles midfielder John Banda scored the only goal of the
game shortly before half-time but Tanzania held on to secure
their spot in the next round.
