Zesco anticipate tough Confederation Cup clash against Rangers in Enugu

By Daily Sports on April 6, 2017

Ahead of their trip to Nigeria in honour of their CAF Confederation Cup clash against Enugu Rangers, Zesco United said they anticipate a tough clash.

Team Ya Ziko are chasing nothing but a win in on Sunday in the round of 32, first leg encounter at Nnandi Azikiwe Stadium.

Having narrowly missed an opportunity to reach the final of the CAF Champions League in 2016 after losing to Mamelodi Sundowns in the semi-finals, United will want to do better in 2017.

According to the club’s administrative officer Francis Chitambala, he said his side is good enough and cannot be intimidated by the Nigerian side.

“We are expecting a big test, it is football as both teams have got equal chances going into the game, the other percentage higher or lower is achieved on the matchday depending on performance of either team,” said Chitambala to Naija Football Plus.

“This team (Zesco United) perhaps in last season’s champions League was the only side that pushed Sundowns, the champions, to the limits.

“As a matter of fact, Pitso Mosimane (Sundowns Manager) personally told me that should his side go past Zesco United, they would emerge champions of Africa.”

United will host the Nigerians a week later at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium in a clash that will determine the team that will progress to the next round. (mtnfootball.com)
