Rivers United lost away to Watanga FC of Liberia 1-0 in the CAF Champions League qualifiers.
However, the result had little or no implication to the eventual outcome as Rivers United sailed into the next round thanks to a strong first leg display where they defeated Watanga 3-0.
While the encounter might be straight forward for the Nigerian side, Wydad Casablanca will prove to be a sterner test.
