Power Dynamos have finally registered their first win in the CAF Champions League Group Stage after edging Nigerian side Rivers United 1–0 at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo.
⚽ Match Winner and Key Moment
The decisive moment came in the 50th minute when defender Kondwani Chiboni fired home from a well-timed pass by Prince Mumba, a goal that proved enough to secure all three points for the Kitwe giants.
The result marks Power Dynamos’ maiden victory in the group stage and breathes new life into their quest for a place in the quarterfinals of the competition.
📊 Group Standings and Qualification Race
The win has kept Power firmly in contention, with the Zambian champions now sitting third in Group A with four points, just three points behind RS Berkane, who currently occupy the qualification spot.
Power’s hopes were further boosted after RS Berkane suffered a 3–0 defeat at the hands of Egyptian side FC Pyramids, who have all but sealed their passage to the last eight.
🔜 What’s Next for Power Dynamos
Power Dynamos return to action next week when they host RS Berkane in what has been described as a must-win encounter for the Kitwe side. They will then wrap up their group-stage campaign on February 13 with an away fixture in Egypt.
With momentum finally on their side, Power Dynamos will be hoping to push hard for a historic quarterfinal berth.
