Napsa set for CAF match in Mozambique

By Mary Mukuka
Napsa Stars look set for this Wednesday’s crucial CAF Confederation Cup match against UD Songo away in Mozambique.

Napsa and Songo are tied at 0-0 from the first round, first leg match played in Lusaka two weeks ago.

The Mohamed Fathi coached side leaves Lusaka for Mozambique on Monday morning.

The team has been boosted by the recovery of strikers Tapson Kaseba and Bornwell Mwape from injury.

“I think we have prepared well for the match. Also the coming of Tapson and Bornwell will give us comfort and more options in the front line,” said Fathi.

The coach is positive ahead of this must win encounter.

“The match is important for us to take advantage. The pressure is on the other side (Songo). They played a closed game here (Lusaka) so definitely that side they want to win the game so they have to open up.”
Fathi added:”We told players the 0-0 is like a new game so we have to go with a winning mentality. Trying to win the game or to have a positive result. God willing we will make Zambia happy.”

Napsa have returned to CAF club games after a lengthy absence.
