CAF Confederation Cup: Nsoatreman FC face CS Constantine in next round

Nsoatreman FC face yet another tough task in the 2024 CAF Confederation Cup when they host Algerian side CS Constantine in the second preliminary round of the competition in Accra next month. 

The first leg comes off at the Accra Sports Stadium on September 13, while CS Constantine host the second leg on September 20 at the Chahid Hamlaoui Stadium, Algeria.

In the first preliminary round, the Ghanaian FA Cup holders recorded a 5-0 aggregate win over Elect Sports of Chad to progress in the competition.

Coach Yaw Preko’s side defeated the Chadians 2-0 last Saturday in the second leg of the preliminary round at the Amadou Ahidjo Stadium in Yaoundé, Cameroun, having won the first leg 3-0 in Accra last week.

Walid Neymar opened the scoring for Nsoatreman FC in the 32nd minute, with Stephen Diyou drilling the final nail in the coffin of Elect Sport in the 81st minute for a resounding victory. 

On the other, CS Constantine reached second preliminary round after beating Rwandan side Police FC 4-1 on aggregate. The Algerians held a 2-0 advantage from the first leg before recording 2-1 victory from the second leg.

Should Nsoatreman FC win against CS Constantine in this second round, they qualify to the group stage of the 2024 CAF Confederation Cup in their debut campaign.
