The curtain has fallen on the group stage of the African Champions League after six rounds that witnessed fierce competition for the quarter-final qualification spots, alongside a parallel battle for the top scorer ranking.

Al-Ahly star, Mahmoud Hassan Trezeguet, sits at the top of the scorers' list with five goals, having played a significant role in his team's journey during this stage.

In second place, with four goals each, are Abdulrazak Omar, a player from Al-Hilal, and Ahmed Atef, a striker from Pyramids, after their clear contributions in boosting their teams' scoring chances.

As for the third place, it is shared with three goals each by Paul Bassene, a player for Renaissance Berkane, and **Aboubacar Diakité**, a forward for Tunisian club Espérance Sportive de Tunis, leaving the competition open as the knockout stages approach.

As the tournament enters its decisive stages, the competition is expected to intensify among the top strikers, given the close scores and the possibility of changes in the top scorers' rankings in any upcoming match. This sets the stage for strong matches and goals that could make the difference in the quest for the continental title.
