Coton Sport shock Dynamos

Coton Sport moved a step closer to the final with a 1-0 win

Coton Sport of Cameroon came away from Harare with a 1-0 win in the first leg of their African Champions League semi-final against Zimbabwean club Dynamos.

Niger international Kamilou Daouda scored the only goal of the game with a header in the 32nd minute of Sunday's game.

It was Daouda's sixth goal of the tournament.

Coton Sport were strong in defence, with Daouda often the only man upfront.

Dynamos captain Murape Murape could have equalised on 62 minutes, but his overhead kick inside the penalty box flew over the bar with only keeper Daouda Kassali to beat.

The result leaves Dynamos with a very difficult task in the second leg on the weekend of 18-19 October, but fans will still hold some hope given their away record in the competition.

The Zimbabwean side beat holders Etoile du Sahel and Ivory Coast's Asec Mimosas away from home.
