Hi Guys my name is Micheal and i like to write on Nigerian Premier League , Caf Champions league anything that involves Nigerian and African football. Ill be posting a lot on them on the forum

We always talk about Christiano Ronaldo been the all time Goal Scorer in the Uefa champions league with 128 Goals, but do people really know who are the all time goal scorers for the CAF Champions League.

Today we would be looking at the top 10 all time top goal scorers in The CAF Champions League, Sadly there are no Nigerian Players in the top 20 but there are two Nigerians in the top 35 List you can see the rest on our blog on the link.
Looking at the list you would notice it is dominated by North and Central Africans, i believe they take the continental competition more serious that other parts of Africa. Most of this players are from Al-Ahly and TP Mazembe

yes...dts d glory days of caf champions league, when local.players fight to score goals and win it, unlike now dt its filled with corruption which is making our local players seeking greener pastures abroad..

how many goals did Stephen Worgu scored for Eyimba then?

Emad Motaeb and Flavio Amando were Al Ahly stalwarts back in the day.

But Aboutreika was the real star.

Those were the best days of the CAF Champions League.

I used to look forward to seeing every single match on TV. It was a family affair- me, my father, my brother. Good old days.

Indeed, gone are the days...

Apart from Amando, there was this other Angolan at Ahly. I think his name was Gilberto or something like that.
