CAF Champions League: Augustine Okrah and Francis Cofie triumph over Harrison Afful as Al Merreikh beat Esperance at home
Al Merreikh and Esperance in action.

There were three Ghanaian players in action on Saturday night when Sudanese side Al Merreikh hosted Esperance of Tunisia in their CAF Champions League 1/8th stage first leg clash.

Al Merreikh had former Ghana Premier League MVP Augustine Okrah and Francis Coffie named in their starting line-up.

And Esperance featured Ghana international right-back Harrison Afful.

But it the former duo- Okrah and Cofie- who smiled at the end of the whole kit and caboodle with a slim 1-0 win.

The return leg will be played in a fortnight in Tunis.
