Medeama SC Loses 1-0 to TP Mazembe in CAF Champions League First Leg

Medeama SC, the reigning Ghana Premier League champions, opened their CAF Champions League campaign with a 1-0 loss to TP Mazembe of the Democratic Republic of Congo at the TNA Stadium in Tarkwa.

The match ended in the dying minutes when TP Mazembe struck, securing a vital first‑leg advantage for the visitors as they head into the return fixture.

Despite a spirited performance from Medeama, the team could not convert chances and ultimately fell short of the goal line.

TP Mazembe’s late goal gave the Congolese side a 1-0 lead, setting the tone for the home leg in Kinshasa.

Both clubs will now focus on the second leg, with Medeama looking to overturn the deficit while TP Mazembe aims to consolidate their advantage.

The result means Medeama will need to score at least one goal in the return match to stay in contention, while TP Mazembe can afford a draw.

As the competition progresses, fans will watch closely to see if Medeama can rebound and claim a place in the next round of the CAF Champions League.
