Mazmebe beat MO Bejaia of Algeria 1-0 at home in Lubumbashi to stay top of Group A.

Kalaba, who missed the 0-0 away first leg match a fortnight ago due to thigh injury, scored for Mazembe in the 61st minute.

He was later substituted in the 85th minute.

Midfielder Nathan Sinkala played the full 90 minutes and was one of two Zambians in the 18 players selected for the match.

Mazembe lead Group A on 10 points five ahead of Medeama of Ghana with two games left to play.
