The Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo – venue of several FIFA World Cup and AFCON qualifiers involving the Super Eagles, as well as continental matches involving Akwa United FC – will on Friday play host to the first continental Cup Final in Nigeria in 18 years. Nigeria international defender Olisa Ndah will be on parade when Orlando Pirates of South Africa take on RS Berkane of Morocco in the final of this year’s CAF Confederation Cup at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo on Friday. Ndah played for the Super Eagles’ squad at the Africa Cup of Nations finals in Cameroon earlier in the year and is on the books of the popular South African club, nicknamed Bucaneers. Pirates won the old-style Africa Champion Clubs’ Cup in 1995.
Orlando Pirates are through to the CAF Confederation Cup final for the fourth time in the history of the club as they prepare to fly out to.
Substitute Ali Arqoub gave Al Ahli a derseved 1-0 win following a not so convincing performance by the 1995 CAF Champions Cup winners in front of a buoyant but also decent crowd of Sea Robbers’ supporters. Orlando Pirates are through to the CAF Confederation Cup final for the fourth time in the history of the club as they prepare to fly out to Nigeria to face Morocco’s RS Berkane in a quest for their second African inter-club championship title. The second-leg encounter was characterised by a plucky determination by the visiting Libyans as they fought throughout the 90 minutes to pull off an upset, and they came close on a number of instances when Richard Ofori was forced to make crucial saves.
