Kumbo versus Avizo encounter postponed again (25.09.2001)
The African Cup Winners Cup quarter-final encounter pitting Cameroon representative, Kumbo Strikers to Gabon’s Avizo, has once more been postponed to Wednesday, September 25, due to the impracticability of the Douala Reunification turf.
State radio reported that, since Saturday, September 22, heavy rains in the coastal economic capital of Cameroon have not only flooded the very much lacking 29 years
old Douala Reunification stadium but have rendered some business activities stagnant.
It is not the first time the Douala Reunification stadium is being over powered by rain. Last year, the same scenario occurred at the eve of the champions league encounter pitting, Sable of Batie (Cameroon) to Orlando Pirates (South Africa), forcing the play ground to be moved from Douala to the nations capital Yaounde.
