Morocco’s RS Berkane left CS Consine in Tatters tonight and drove to a brutal 4-0 victory in the first stage of the CAF Confederation cup semi-final.
The Algerians were stunned before they even sweated-Youssef Mehri smashed the opener in the opener just 14 seconds after the kick-off. Blink and you would have missed it. The goal is the fastest in the history of competition.
Paul Valère Basdenene did it in 21 minutes and turned the screw when the home team in the city stadium in Berkane rested.
After the break it got worse. Osama Lamlioui in the form of his life hit home twice – in 54 minutes and again in injury – his personal record in the tournament took five.
The second leg for April 27 in Algeria, but let’s be honest – Konstantin needs a miracle.
