Addressing a press conference ahead of Saturday’s game, Ngezi coach Tonderai Ndiraya was confident that they are going to win either 3-1 or 1-0 giving them an advantage to proceed to the group stage of the CAF Confederations Cup.
“We have all the players in form and only one player is injured Byron Madzokere but we have 29 player registered for this competition and with same quality,” said Ndiraya adding that his players will express themselves in the match on Saturday.
“Although we conceded from two set pieces in Angola last week, we have worked on that as the technical team plus the boys were reacting well to the new tactics going into the return leg” added Ndiraya
New Ngezi captain Patson Jaure is optimistic that Ndiraya’s strategies will yield good results as they are looking for an early goal to kill the game
“Club officials have made us feel at home because 10 buses will bring our fans to the game from the mine and the fans are the 12th men plus they will contribute much to the game,” said Jaure.
Ndiraya took time to wish Caps United the best of luck when they meet African football giants TP Mazembe on Sunday in the second leg of CAF Champions League after playing a one all draw in DRC last week.
