Kenneth Igboke and James Emo waited until the final stretch to make their mark, and when they did, Enugu Rangers walked away with a clean 2-0 first-leg win over Algerian champions MC Alger in the CAF Champions League.
The result puts the Nigerian side in a commanding position heading into the return fixture, with no away goals conceded to worry about. For a club with the kind of continental history Rangers carries, this is exactly the kind of statement performance the fans needed to see.
Now the question is whether they can hold the advantage when the second leg comes around.
