1The match was abandoned in the second half with Tonnerre Yaoundé leading 3–0 after Al Ittihad players walked off to protest the officiating and the hostile home fans. Al Ittihad were ejected from the competition; after returning to Egypt, their players said that they were assaulted by local fans and police during the match after complaining about the poor officiating.[1]
