Nkana faces TAS FC of Morocco

By CHINOYI CHIPULU
Nkana will face TAS of Morocco in the CAF Confederation Cup pre-group stage next month.

The Kitwe side on Wednesday dropped into the Confederation Cup after losing 1-0 on aggregate to Petro Atletico in Angola in the CAF Champions League.

According to the draws conducted in Cairo yesterday, Nkana will start at home in the first leg with the return in Morocco a week later.

The first leg is scheduled for February 14 while the second leg will be played on February 21.

Nkana reached the group stage of the Confederation Cup in 2018.

Meanwhile, Napsa Stars have been handed at tricky draw against celebrated Kenyan giants Gor Mahia.

Napsa qualified to the next round after seeing off Mozambican side UD Songo on away goal rule.

Striker Emmanuel Mayuka scored the equaliser in Beira on Tuesday to ensure Napsa settled for a 1-all draw and advance to the next stage.

The Pensioners will be away in the first leg and will welcome the Kenyans in the second leg in Lusaka.

Winners over two leg will secure a place in the group stages of the competition.
