AFC Vs Academie Group stage match
Today [Semis]:
Victoria
University [Uganda] Vs Ahly Shandi
[Sudan], 8:30pm
The
inaugural CECAFA Nile Basin Cup tournament goes into the semifinals this Monday
evening here in Khartoum City, Sudan with both games causing a lot of tension.
AFC Leopards Vs Academie Tchite
Both
clubs were part of the Group ‘B’ composition and AFC Leopards struggled to edge
their opponents 1-0 in their last group stage match. Their late goal [83’] came
through Benard Mangoli.
But
both teams qualified for the quarters with Leopards leading the group on maximum
points and Academie finishing 3rd with only 3 points. Academie
however later registered the biggest shock of the tournament when they dumped
the hosts and tourney favourites Al-Merreik 3-2 on spot kicks after a 1-1 draw in
the normal time of the second quarter finals last Friday.
Victoria University Vs Ahly Shandy
The
two clubs have never played each other and Ahly Shandy coach Elnnagar Al-Ftih
confesses knowing nothing much about their opponents. Victoria’s Muzamir Mutyaba
is expected back in action after serving his one match suspension.
Ahly
Shandy is however an attack minded club with almost all departments functioning
to perfection. The Ugandan defence
commanded by Captain Martin Mpuga will have a busy evening to contain the
speeding strikers of Saaed Mustafa, Bashir Mohamoud, Awad Mohamoud and Addis
Hintsa
Extra time granted
In
case no winner is decided in the 90 minutes of the normal time, the matches
will go into a 30-minute extra time and if the same result doesn’t change after
the added time, it will be penalties. Tuesday will be a resting day before the
finals on Wednesday.
