Libyan side Al Nasr Football Club rallied with a 2-0 victory over Proline in the return leg of the CAF Confederation Cup playoff at the StarTimes Stadium, Lugogo.

But Paradou restored their lead seven minutes before the recess when Yousri Bouzouk made it 2-1 for the hosts.
After the break it was all one way, as the newcomers added two more goals in the space of five minutes. Abdelkahar Kadri scored after 65 minutes to make it 3-1 on the night, and just five minutes later Aimen Biugera scored the fourth to send his side to the group stage.
