Kenyan side Gor Mahia played out a goalless away to Aigle Noir in the Caf Champions League first-leg meeting at Stade Intwari in Bujumbura.
Under the tutelage of new coach Steven Polack, K’Ogalo handed debuts starts for new signings Dickson Ambundo, David Mapigano and Tobias Otieno.
New Gor Mahia head coach Steven Polack had just 15 players at his disposal for the match due to suspension issues. Midfielder Ernest Wendo remained suspended while Dennis Oliech, Boniface Oluoch and new signing Curtis Wekesa are recuperating from injuries suffered.
The players who were not registered oare Maurice Ojwang, Gislain Yikpe, and Francis Afryie.
As a result they who could not take part in the first leg of the preliminary round due to the late submission of their names to Caf.
A draw is a fair result for the reigning Kenyan Champions who now have the task of defeating Aigle Noir in the return leg
The winner on aggregate will face either Algeria’s USM Alger or SONIDEP of Niger in the next round. USM Alger won 2-1 in their first leg match against SONIDEP in Niamey on August 10.
