KCCA FC will carry a 1-0 aggregate to the Estádio 11 de Novembro in Luanda, Angola for the return leg of the preliminary round of the 2017 Total CAF Champions League on February 19th.
Skipper Denis Okot has no doubt whatsoever that the reigning league champions will be able to advance to the first round.
We are not out as many people think, we actually carry an advantage with us to Angola and that alone gives us confidence to work hard and overcome the challenge
Okot told www.kccafc.co.ug on Sunday as the team completed their two day break, he also added.
Football is a game of taking your chances, created many but only utilized one, we just need to work on our sharpness in front of goal, but also keep the defensive discipline, there is no way why we can’t advance
KCCA FC resumes training at the Mandela National Stadium with a morning and afternoon session on Monday, one morning session on Tuesday and another double session on Wednesday in order to acclimatize to the natural grass surface they will use in Angola.
The training sessions in Namboole will be help it’s similar to the same surface we are going to play on and bigger, as players adjusting won’t that hard
All KCCA FC needs to do is force a draw; they can even afford to lose with a one goal margin that is 1-0, that would force the game into post match spot kicks.
KCCA FC will leave for the tie on February 16 ahead of the game on Sunday, and will return home on February 20, just in time for their 17th Azam Uganda Premier League tie against Onduparaka on February 25th at the Philip Omondi Stadium in Lugogo.
