Confederation Cup: It’s now or never for AS Kigali
Saturday, February 20, 2021

For AS Kigali, it will be a case of now or never as the City of Kigali side take on CS Sfaxien in the CAF Confederation Cup playoff round on Saturday afternoon at Kigali Stadium.

"Winning the game is our main focus and my players have the confidence that they can win. Qualification to group stages is possible, I believe in my players not only because of this match, even before because they have quality,” coach Eric Nshimiyimana said

AS Kigali will have a mountain to claim in the return-leg after losing 4-1 to SC Sfaxien in the first-leg last Saturday.

The City of Kigali-sponsored side will need at least three goals without conceding if they are to reach the group stage of Africa’s second-biggest club competition.

The three-time Peace Cup winners reached the playoffs round of the Caf Confederation Cup last month after edging out Uganda’s KCCA in the first round on away goal advantage.
