Azam FC delivered a decisive performance against EL Merriekh FC Bentiu with a 2-0 victory in the CAF Confederation Cup. The early breakthrough for Azam FC came in the first half at the 32-minute mark, setting the pace for the home team. The second goal in the 92nd minute sealed the match, showcasing Azam's ability to maintain pressure throughout the game.

A significant factor in Azam’s success was their superior management of set-pieces, evidenced by their eight corner kicks compared to EL Merriekh’s two. This dominance in corner opportunities both sustained their attacking momentum and kept the pressure firmly on the visitors. While not all corners resulted in direct goals, they contributed to Azam’s control over the match.

Discipline and tactical awareness were defining elements, with neither team recording any yellow or red cards. However, EL Merriekh's six offsides, double that of Azam FC’s four, reflected their struggles in organizing an effective attack without breaching offside lines. This inefficiency hindered their ability to capitalize on forward movements and severely restricted their goal-scoring opportunities. In contrast, Azam's disciplined defense effectively neutralized the opposition's attempts, contributing significantly to their clean sheet.
