Rangers International has asked the Confederation of African Football (CAF) for the return leg against MC Alger to be played behind closed doors. The Nigerian club petitioned the governing body on Monday 19 October, after beating the Algerian club 2-0 in Abeokuta the previous day, according to Beninwebtv.
In a complaint signed by its managing director, Amobi Ezeaku, Rangers says Algerian supporters forced open a gate at MKO Abiola Stadium, bypassed ticket checks and damaged seats. The club says it has sent photographs to CAF, which has yet to rule on its request, Beninwebtv reports.
