The trio featured in the 0-0 draw after extra-time at home against Kyrgyzstani side Alay Osh.
But Tripoli triumphed 7-6 on penalties to progress to the round-robin phase of the competition.
Defender Ofori and midfielder Helegbe all lasted 90 minutes but striker Yusif was replaced on 120 minutes.
Tripoli are in Group B alongside Al Faisaly (Saudi Arabia), Istiqlol (Tajikistan) and Iranian side Naft Al-Wasat
