00:00For Stade d'Abidjan, who will be attacking from left to right, the visitors, to get things proceeded.
00:15Stydian Diamandé is well switched up to Saint-Jean-Cort, wearing his number 10.
00:21He must be quite confident knowing that he has a goal-scoring ability and he's proven it.
00:25Against a side of the calibre of Alali, it's well defended by Mohamed Hadzi.
00:43And Stade d'Abidjan, first side to settle in with possession.
00:47Of course they did kick off and it's been less than a minute of play so far,
00:51but nonetheless, showing that they are a side that will try to play out from the back and that's well done.
00:58To eliminate, Abdelraouf Benguit, playing it to the right winger, Abdelrahman Mezian, good cross.
01:06Cedou Touré was alert there, the experience centre-back, double intervention from him.
01:12In swinging corner, surely, perhaps something from the training ground, as we hope to see.
01:19It's well worked and it's well read though by Abdelraouf Benguit at the first post,
01:24chesting it out, extinguishing any possible danger there.
01:33Good pass this time, much better from Balkir.
01:35Benguit and great return from Montsouquakou, who took the corner initially, made a huge sprint.
01:44Wide of the target, possession stats seem pretty even.
01:48Stade d'Abidjan perhaps have a little bit more of it.
01:53A lot of their attacking play has been going through Saint-Jean-Court.
01:57Here he is again, he's not offside, careful to not be offside there.
02:01Getting on to his right foot, and this time he did make the space against his defender, Mohamed Hadzi.
02:09Champions League match with so many, well, not a crazy amount of supporters present,
02:14but nonetheless, it is a Champions League encounter.
02:19Cleared out, only so far, and what a goal!
02:22Scored by Abderrahman Mezian!
02:25A scissor kick with his right foot, into the top corner,
02:30and Dries Bamba didn't even die for it, the goalkeeper for Stade d'Abidjan.
02:35A very measured celebration.
02:39Great build-up play, kicked off by Belkir, it's a lovely cross,
02:44cleared only so far, it's Mezian, who from within the box,
02:50knew exactly what to do with it.
02:52Chessing it down, allowing for the ball to bounce, and then sending it in.
03:00If it hadn't touched, it would have gone in, but excellent movement from Belouizade,
03:04they're going forward, played back, and that's the second goal of the match,
03:08and it's scored by number 19, Mohamed Islam Belkir!
03:12Lovely team play, from the Chababists.
03:18And they widen their lead, again exploiting their speed.
03:23And Abderrahman Mezian, the goal scorer, now turning into a sister.
03:29And it was a simple finish, really, from Mohamed Islam Belkir,
03:32not under too much pressure at all.
03:35Slotting the ball home.
03:38Counter-attack there, the midfielder's created space,
03:41and Mezian is on a double, can he get his brace?
03:44Decides to play generously to Emad Mayous, and it's 3-0 for Belouizade!
03:513-0, three goal scorers, this time it's a centre-forward, Emad Mayous.
03:56But Abderrahman Mezian had so much time and space from his right wing.
04:02The midfield play of Serb Belouizade, it's so high, from the Ivory Coast side,
04:07and capitalised by Mezian, who had such an advantage,
04:14of course he could have done whatever he wanted with it,
04:16decided to play generously this time, offering the goal on a golden plate,
04:23would have said a silver one, but really this was a golden plate,
04:26given how much time and space.
04:28Emad blows the whistle for the halftime, it's 3-0 for the hosts from Algeria,
04:33Serb Belouizade against Stade d'Abidjan.
04:36It's been a dominant performance overall, from the fifth minute at least,
04:41it's been all home side, the Reds went forward with such determination,
04:46linking up through that man, Abderrahman Mezian,
04:49who combined very well with Mohamed Hadzi,
04:52as well as the movement of Mohamed Issam Belkir,
04:55who scored the second of the match.
04:57Emad Mayous would get the third, after Serb Belouizade would break the pressure,
05:03with a destructive counter-attacking play.
05:09And it's been quite good from this team in red, however Stade d'Abidjan
05:13will have to rethink their strategy going into the second half.
05:18It's 3-0 at the halftime, between the third and fourth place teams
05:22in the Group C of the Champions League.
05:32The defensive sector, the team from the Ivory Coast were overloaded,
05:36and referee blows the whistle for the second half to begin.
05:42There's a change of sides, Stade d'Abidjan will now be attacking
05:46from right to left, and Serb Belouizade from left to right.
05:52The referee of the match, Alhaji Mahamat, having very little to do,
05:55there were only four fouls for Serb Belouizade,
05:59and five for Stade d'Abidjan.
06:02No cards to dish out, and not much animosity between these two sides.
06:07Of course it doesn't have the most intensity,
06:10given both teams don't have much to play for.
06:15The centre midfielder finding his captain, shot from distance.
06:19Doesn't do a great job, the goalkeeper, and unfortunately
06:22bats the ball back into the path of Aymen Mayous,
06:24and that's the fourth goal of the match.
06:26After just three minutes and a half of play, Aymen Mayous
06:30converts his second goal of the match, and the inexperience
06:34of the new goalkeeper, Yeboah Temele, who was substituted on,
06:37just showed he does a terrible job in catching that shot
06:43from distance from Abdelraouf Benguit, of the first test
06:46of the second half, completely fails, and put his side
06:50in a completely tricky position, and Aymen Mayous doesn't...
06:55...finals, he'll play against the second place team.
06:59Good ball in by Adzi, who just came on, another good ball,
07:02and that surely is the fifth goal, and it's converted
07:04by Reski Mamrun. He was asking for it since he was introduced,
07:09and he finally gets what he's been asking for.
07:13A goal, and it's 5-0 for Serab Elouizade at home.
07:18Lovely play from Mohamed Adzi, who I just mentioned earlier.
07:23Gets into the dangerous area on that right wing.
07:25He's been a poison all night.
07:28Finds Hedi Chabi, who'll get the assist.
07:35And Reski Mamrun, completely unmarked from inside the box,
07:39finished comfortably next to the post,
07:42with the inside of his right foot.
07:45Oh, excellent defensive intervention from Abderrahman Bekour.
07:50Good job since coming on.
07:55Oh, will there be another cross delivered in, and there is!
07:57And that's the sixth goal, and it's for Merwan Zerouki!
08:016-0!
08:04This is not tennis, this is football.
08:06But it's a 6-0 score!
08:09Merwan Zerouki getting the goal just before added time can be shown.
08:14And now Serab Elouizade will have a goal differential of zero.
08:19And that'll be 18 goals conceded by Stade de Bijan
08:23in their six matches of group stage play.
08:25Lovely sprint, and he never gave up there.
08:30Amrun, and delivered a near-post cross to Merwan Zerouki,
08:34who, again, from very close distance,
08:36like most of the goals we've seen today,
08:40finishes.
08:43And that's a delight for the supporters here at the Stade du Saint-Ju...
08:48Cleared out by Bedri Souyad.
08:51And that's the final whistle blown by referee Al-Hajji Mahamat.
08:566-0, final result for the host, Serab Elouizade,
09:00at the Stade du Saint-Juillet,
09:02Stade du Saint-Juillet against visitors,
09:05Stade de Bijan.
09:07A dominant performance from start to finish.
09:10The second half started just as it left off in the first,
09:13with a goal scored by the striker Aymen Mayous.
09:17Four substitutions would be made by Abdelkadir Amrani,
09:20and of those four, two of them would then get on the score sheet consecutively.
09:24It would be...
09:32...4-0.
