On Sunday afternoon, Marumo Gallants began their maiden CAF Confederation
Cup group stage campaign with a 4-1 victory over Al-Akhdar.
The Limpopo side got off to a perfect start as Lesiba Nku opened the
scoring four minutes in. Katlego Oltadisa then provided the assist for
Ranga Chivaviro to double the lead in the 21st minute.
Chivaviro then added his second of the match ten minutes into the second
half. The visitors did manage to pull a goal back with ten minutes on the
clock, with Akram Alzawi firing past Arubi to set up a nervy finish.
However, Joseph Molangoane wrapped up the win in the 85th minute with his
first goal of the competition as Gallants start the group phase with a
win.
