Ghanaian goalkeeper Daniel Agyei's Ethiopian side Jimma Abba Jifar will face record African champions Al Ahly in the 1/16th stage of the CAF Champions League after eliminating ASAS Djibouti Telecom.
The Ethiopian side, Aba Jifar, who are making their continental debut, could only draw 2-2 against Telecom in the return leg of the Champions League tie played out at the Addis Ababa Stadium on 4th of December.
The Ethiopians took a 3-1 lead from the first leg but it was the away side who draw first blood in the second minute of the game through Mahdi Houssein Mahabeh.
Mahabeh picked up a brilliant ball from inside the box to fire past Ghanaian custodian Daniel Agyei and hand Telecom a surprising lead.
The visitors continued to cause havoc on their swift counter attacks and were close to add their second through Fatai Abiodun whose heading effort rattled the bar in the 16th minute.
Two minutes later, the homers leveled matters through Malian import Mamadou Sidibe. Sidibe capitalized on Telecom’s goalkeeper Jeff Nzokira's blunder to equalize from close range.
After the break, Jimma Aba Jifar piled on early pressure and were successful to turn the score around. Ivorian striker Didier Lebri put the homers 2-1 up after a superb cut back pass from Henok Wakana in the 51st minute.
At the hour mark, Sidibe was destined to grab his brace but the cross bar denied him the feat.
Ten minutes later Abiodun successfully converted a spot kick as the encounter ended in a two-all draw.
