Daúto Faquirá, coach of Clube Ferroviário da Beira, is focused on starting his African Champions League campaign with a victory over Mbabane Swallows, the current Eswatini champions. The match, which marks the first leg of the first qualifying round of the African Champions League, will be played at the Lucas Moripe Stadium in Pretoria next Friday.
Faquirá acknowledges that the task will not be easy, but reaffirms that the team's objective is to advance to the group stage. He emphasizes the importance of a good result in the first leg to facilitate the return match. Confidence is a key point for the team, which, despite not having in-depth knowledge of the opponent, is determined to face the challenge seriously.
Defender Comissário also reinforced the group's confidence, highlighting that, even without playing at home in Beira, the team will approach the game with the necessary responsibility. He asked for the support and positive energy of the fans to face Mbabane Swallows with the best possible preparation.
Meanwhile, Associação Black Bulls, another Mozambican club participating in the African club competitions, is also seeking a place in the CAF Cup group stage. Coach Hélder Duarte highlighted the advantage of playing both games against Alizé Fort at home, although he stressed that this does not guarantee qualification. The team must maintain maximum concentration to ensure their progress.
With a well-defined strategy and a determined spirit, Daúto Faquirá will lead Ferroviário da Beira in the quest for a crucial victory in Pretoria, marking the start of the journey towards the group stage of Africa's premier club competition.
