CAF Confed Cup: We are a team to beat, says Rangers coach



Coach of Rangers International Football Club of Enugu, Benedict Ugwu has boasted that his club is the team to beat as far as the CAF Confederation Cup is concerned, saying that his team is not afraid of any club side in the group stage.  

Ugwu made the declaration Wednesday while addressing sports writers in Enugu on the team’s preparation for the competition, adding that any team that had passed through the qualifying stage should not be seen as underdogs.

He said “as a matter of fact, we are a good side and we are preparing for the matches. To have progressed beyond the group stage means we are not pushovers. “We are not afraid of any of the teams. This is the only cup that is eluding Nigeria and we have no other target than to win it.”

The Flying Antelope Coach who expressed optimism that “with God on our side it is achievable,” said they would be well prepared for the task ahead. Rangers will face Mauritania’s FC Nouadhibou and two Egyptian sides, Pyramids FC and Al Masry SC in group A.
