THE African Champions League second-round, second leg match between Daring Club Motema Pembe of the Democratic Republic of Congo and Shooting Stars of Nigeria was abandoned at half-time on Sunday. Stars held Pembe goalless in the first half at the 80000-capacity Martyrs Stadium in Kinshasa to retain a 2-0 aggregate lead built in the first leg on May 30. The Nigerian club refused to resume play after a 45-minute half-time break, claiming Congolese supporters threw a variety of objects at them, including water-filled plastic bags. A place in Group 1 of the lucrative mini-league phase with Raja Casablanca of Morocco, Al-Ahly of Egypt and Hearts of Oak of Ghana awaits the winners of a tie likely to be decided in the African Football Confederation boardroom.
