CAFCC: RS Berkane vs Ashantigold SC – Match Preview
Ashantigold SC is going into this game as the favorite on paper having won 9 of their last 10 matches and drawing and losing just one each against RS Berkane’s 3 wins and 3 draws with 4 loses. No wonder the Miners have won the first leg by 3-2.
Ghanaian Clubs are fond of succumbing to the North African sides tricks and mind games but that notion is increasingly becoming a thing of the past.
Ashantigold SC best performance in Africa is dated back in the 90s when they were finalists in the 1997 Champions League while their counterparts RS Berkene were finalists in last year’s Confederation Cup.
The Miners defense is not that solid especially when it comes to set-pieces but it is possible to defend the 3-2 win in Obuasi, Coach Ricardo Da Rocha and his men will find it difficult to so in Morocco but it is highly possible.
Kickoff time is 8pm.
