CAF Confederation Cup: Aduana Stars dumped out of competition after losing at home to ASEC Mimosas

Aduana Stars have been booted out of the CAF Confederation Cup after losing to Asec Mimosas at the Dormaa Park.

The Ghanaian champions were beaten 2-0 by the Burkinabe side on Sunday in a game which was keenly contested.

ASEC enjoyed the early dominance in the match, but had to wait until just past the midway point of the first half to claim the lead on the score sheet, with Gbagnon Anicet Badie netting from the penalty spot in the 24th minute.

Eleven minutes later the visitors doubled their advantage, with Braciano Ta Bi netting from a well-worked move to ensure ASEC went into half time with a two-goal lead.

Stars come out aggressively in the second half and pushed hard to try and get back in the game, with half-time substitute Oba Ukama Ulitch playing a strong role.

With AS Vita defeating Raja Casablanca in a simultaneous Group A match, the results leave the DRC side at the top with 10 points, the Moroccans are second with eight points, and ASEC have moved up to third with six points.
