00:00It really should be, as said, an intriguing clash between these sides.
00:31No different.
00:40So we are underway in the second game of the day in Group A.
00:46Can CS Sfaxion use the fact that they're playing on Tunisian soil, not necessarily home advantage,
00:52given they are playing here in Redes, just outside Tunis, rather than at home in Sfax.
01:01Medahi.
01:04Nice pass forward.
01:06Back to Medahi.
01:08Honestly, move this from Konstantin.
01:10And just fired over from Ben Chahat.
01:13That was a sweeping, flowing move from the Algerian league leader.
01:23Just the wrong age, just finding some of the best form in his life.
01:26That's a really good ball into the middle.
01:28And a really important clearance again from Boussouf.
01:31He's slipped, got back to his feet and now he goes down to get some treatment.
01:39Intricate.
01:40Pedro Sarr swinging it into the middle.
01:44Sarr's delivery will go all the way through to Hebbasi.
01:49Debali.
01:51Sekoui.
01:53Another opportunity to cross.
01:55And that's not the greatest clearance.
01:56And he got lucky there.
01:58To go to the byline, swings it in.
02:02As Conte clears it away.
02:04Sfaxion clear their line.
02:06So the Egyptian referee brings the first half to a close.
02:11Applause ringing out inside.
02:14The Stade Olympique Hamadia Grebbi.
02:18Honours even.
02:19Ben Chahat.
02:20Ben Chahat
02:21almost hitting the target just before the quarter hour.
02:25And then Hayreddin Boussouf
02:27called into a tip-top save
02:30to deny home goal from Ashraf Badrama.
02:33With Debali, simple one.
02:35They scored theirs.
02:38I will store my keys of.
02:39And the goal I missed there.
02:41So we are back underway.
02:51Confirmation that.
02:58Well after Sfaxion had a fairly healthy spell of possession.
03:03It's now Konstantin's turn.
03:12Interesting back header.
03:14It came off for him.
03:15Kaibou charging forward.
03:17Taking it to Sfaxion.
03:19On he goes.
03:21He just needs men in the middle.
03:22Well is this the moment for C.S. Konstantin?
03:24It isn't.
03:25Because Kaibou was just too quick for his teammates who couldn't.
03:2850 appearances in the Premier League.
03:31Mainly for Portimonense.
03:36And surely the connection to Alexandra Santos.
03:41The Portuguese coach in charge of Sfaxion is what brought him here.
03:50Finding the space into Deeb.
03:52He's in behind.
03:53The skipper for Konstantin.
03:54And he's broken the deadlock.
03:5610 minutes from time.
03:58At long last.
04:00And it had to be him.
04:02Brahim Deeb.
04:04The creator supreme.
04:06The man that they would have wanted the chance to go to.
04:09And he dribbled it past.
04:12Aymen Damen wasn't the fiercest struck shot.
04:15But that won't matter to that man.
04:18Coach Madoui.
04:20And Deeb off in celebration in front of the Konstantin supporters.
04:24What a moment for them.
04:26Flares lighting up.
04:28This stadium in so long this game.
04:30Seemed destined to be goalless.
04:33Ben Chiria had the vision.
04:35Executed the pass to perfection.
04:37It was a decent enough contact.
04:39But let's be honest.
04:41That shouldn't be going past a goalkeeper of international standing.
04:46But that's exactly what it did.
04:50And Konstantin.
04:52Taking the lead.
04:54The Algerian league leaders.
05:00Sfaxien.
05:02Can they salvage a late, late equaliser?
05:06They can't because that's headed away.
05:09And they absolutely need to get this back into the area as quickly as they can.
05:14And it's a throw in for Sfaxien.
05:17It's just going to surely be pumped into the box.
05:23They're into the sixth minute of additional time.
05:26When only four were added on.
05:28Winley, nice play from him.
05:29In comes the cross.
05:31But it doesn't travel far.
05:32Throw in.
05:34All eyes on that man.
05:37And whether he will be blowing the whistle.
05:40They don't want to be wasting too much time.
05:43Sfaxien.
05:45Debali with a throw.
05:49It needs to go into the box.
05:52And it's not done so.
05:54And as a result.
05:57The cheers you can hear from the Konstantin fans.
06:01Because their side who lead the Algerian league.
06:05Have gone off to a flying start in the group phase of the confederation cup as well.
06:13They worked incredibly hard for it.
06:16And they waited a long time for the goal as well.
06:19It came just nine minutes from time.
06:22Through their skipper, Brahim Dieb.
06:25Who fired home past Aymen Damen.
06:28With the Sfaxien goalkeeper.
06:31Really should have done better with the effort that came his way.
06:34C.S. Sfaxien had a lot of possession.
06:37A lot of patience.
06:39But they didn't create that many opportunities.
06:41And they seldom got in behind the Konstantin defence.
06:44For whom Hayreddin Boussouf was outstanding in goal.
06:48As were the likes of Medahi, Boudrama, Belouel.
06:51And Baoush across the back.
06:53A really impressive defensive display.
06:56They nicked it at the end.
06:58And Konstantin goes joint top of group A.
07:00Alongside Simba.
07:02Who beat Ravos Domarkis of Angola earlier in the day.
07:05It has ended in Radez.
07:08Radez with a famous win for the visitors.
07:11And Sfaxien have got work to do when they go to Angola next time out.
07:16Konstantin at home to Simba next time out.
07:19And those fans will celebrate long into the evening.
07:22It has ended at the Stade Olympique Hamadi Aghrebi.
