TUNIS, April 7 (Xinhua) -- Club Africain qualified on Saturday for the quarterfinal of the African Confederation Cup after beating Ethiopia's St George 2-0 in Rades, the official TAP press agency reported.
Africain which managed to clinch a 1-1 draw in their away match, scored in the third minute thanks to a long distance shot by Skander Ben Cheikh, and doubled the score at the 29th minute when Amir Hadj Messaoud scored a neat penalty goal.
