Enyimba of Nigeria star Austin Oladapo twisted the facts when expressing optimism ahead of a challenging CAF Confederation Cup quarter-final second leg at Horoya of Guinea Sunday.
An Oladapo goal was cancelled by one from Boniface Haba in a 1-1 first-leg draw that leaves Enyimba in trouble as Horoya boast a perfect six-win home CAF record this season.
His latest team are poised to reach the semi-finals of a CAF competition for the first time since losing a 1983 African Cup Winners Cup semi-final to Arab Contractors of Egypt. Farouk and Burkinabe Eric Traore have netted six times each for Pyramids in their maiden African campaign, once more than Ghanaian John Antwi.Moroccan Karim el Berkaoui has played down the media attention he drew after scoring his second CAF hat-trick for Hassania Agadir in the 5-0 away rout of Libyans Al Nasr.
The club based in the northeast of the kingdom have since signed a vastly experienced forward in Mouhcine Iajour, whose previous clubs include Casablanca giants Raja and Wydad.
