Nkana’s CAF Confederation Cup semifinal hopes face a massive test following Wednesday’s quarterfinal draws after they were handed a last eight date against record three-time champions CS Sfaxien of Tunisia.
Beston Chambeshi’s side will host the Tunisia giants in the first leg on April 7 and travel to Sfax for the final leg on April 14.
Interestingly, Sfaxien return to Zambia for a second successive time this season in the CAF Confederation Cup after eliminating Green Buffaloes in the pre-group stage last December.
Sfaxien beat Buffaloes 4-1 in Tunisia but lost 1-0 in Lusaka to progress to the group stage.
Meanwhile, Sfaxien will visit Nkana for the first time in twenty years.
Sfaxien eliminated Nkana 4-1 on aggregate in the second round of the defunct CAF Cup in 1999 after the latter lost 4-0 away in Tunisia.
Kanshi chapwa! Lets get back to the drawing board.
NKANA NEEDS TO SCORE MORE THAN TWO GOALS TO STAND ON THE SAFE SIDE ,AND ON THE RETURN LEG NEEDS TO PLAY WITH ONE MAN ON THE TOP GOOD LUCK TEAM NKANA ABA RED
Chapwa Ba Nkana Bafuma,apa telikulu,linono!
