Algerian club JS Kabylie won a record third consecutive Confederation of African Football (Caf) Cup title on Sunday despite losing the second leg of the final away at Tonnerre Yaounde of Cameroon.
Tonnerre won 1-0 in front of 25 000 fans in Yaounde, but a huge 4-0 lead from the first leg was enough to ensure a comfortable aggregate win for the Algerians.
JS Kabylie now keep the trophy after winning it three times in a row.
The overwhelming advantage the Algerians took into the game never looked under threat even after Jean-Rene Eyoum scored for the home side in the 33rd minute.

The shocking state of the pitch, half covered in grass and full of divots, meant there was little chance of any enterprising football from Tonnerre, as they sought to fight back from the first leg in Algiers on November 8.
Eyoum's goal came after a goalmouth scramble following a free kick floated into the Algerian side's penalty area.
An initial attempt from Gaston Olivier Bindzi was blocked by JSK goalkeeper Lounes Gaouaoui, but Eyoum followed up to score with a shot from close range.
