CAF Champions League Review: USM Alger qualify for semis

Runaway Group B leaders USM Alger edged MC El Eulma 1-0 to advance to the CAF Champions League's final four with two games to spare.

Full-back Mohamed Meftah was the hero for visiting USM Alger, with his second-half header enough to preserve the club's perfect record after four Group B matches on Friday.

Miloud Hamdi's USM Alger will face the runner-up in Group A in the semis, though that group is far from decided after Moghreb Tetouan prevailed 1-0 at Al Hilal Omdurman.

Midfielder Ahmed Jahouh's successful 24th-minute penalty helped Moghreb Tetouan to their first victory of the group stage.
