KCCA FC one point away from Confederations Cup quarter finals

Must read

KCCA FC travel to Tunisia in their final game of  Group A Confederations Cup group stages against Club Africain.

The Uganda premier league champions aim to continue their fine form and keep their quarter final hopes on track after a comfortable 3-1 win over Moroccan side FUS Rabat on Sunday at Lugogo.

Geoffrey Sserunkuuma, Saddam Juma and Isaac Muleme were the goal scorers before the visitors pulled one back through Lamine Diakite in the closing minutes of the game.

KCCA just need a point to reach the quarter finals of the 2017 CAF Confederation Cup but can still qualify when they lose only if the match between FUS Rabat and Rivers United ends in a draw.

A draw for KCCA and Africain on Friday will assure the two sides of quarter finals places.

Habib Kavuma is back in the squad after missing the FUS Rabat game due to suspension to boost the team’s confidence.

The first leg in Kampala ended 2-1 with a comeback from KCCA thanks to goals from playmaker Derrick Nsibambi and Tom Matsiko after Mokhtar Belkhither gave the North Africans an early lead.

KCCA are second with 9 points on level with table leaders Club Africain who lead on goal difference while Rabat and Rivers United are both locked on 6 points.

At the same time, FUS Rabat from Morocco will play host to Nigeria’s Rivers United FC.
