MTN FA Cup champions, Nsoatreman, have been kicked out of the CAF Confederation Cup following their defeat to Constantine.

The Ghana Premier League side suffered a 1-0 defeat in the second leg of their encounter against the Algerian side on Saturday evening.

Zakaria Benchaa scored the only goal of the game to ensure Constantine booked a place in the group stage of the competition.

Nsoatreman were going to overturn the 0-2 defeat they suffered at the Accra Sports Stadium last weekend when they hosted Constantine.

However, they fell short also in Algeria, suffering yet another defeat to bring an end to their hopes of playing in the group stages of the continental club tournament.

The Nsoatre-based side were hopeful of replicating the success of Dreams FC last season, who reached the semi-finals.
