Maghreb Tetouan went into the Saturday's games level on points with the eventual qualifiers, but the Moroccan outfit crashed out in humiliating fashion as TP Mazembe hammered them 5-0 in Lubumbashi.

Mbwana Samata was the star turn for the four-time champions with a hat-trick, while Rainford Kalaba and Roger Assale also got among the goals to secure top spot in the section.

El Hilal, on the other hand, were held to a 1-1 draw against Smouha despite their Egyptian opponents having only pride to play for in Alexandria.

Amir Abou Sabaa put the hosts in front after 21 minutes, but Nasr Ahmed ensured a share of the spoils with 17 minutes to play.
