“But I expected us to score more goals.
“Overall, we’re happy, we’re still top of the group.”
Eguavoen also blasted the North Africans for their time wasting antics.
“They are a good side, they should play, when we scored, they came out,” he added.
“They defended in numbers in front of their goalkeeper.”
The two teams will clash again in Benina next week Tuesday.
