Jose Riveiro Stresses Importance of Reaching CAF Champions’ League Group Stages!

Jose Riveiro Stresses Importance of Reaching CAF Champions’ League Group Stages! The Buccaneers are in action tonight in continental football. 

Orlando Pirates take on Jwaneng Galaxy in the CAF Champions League Preliminary rounds tonight. Head coach Jose Riveiro believes this is a tournament they should participate in.

The Buccaneers lost the first leg 1-0, in Botswana. They have it all to do as they have to turn the tie around at the Orlando Stadium. 

Failure to qualify for the CAF Champions’ League group stages would dampen their season, at this early stage.

“The expectations are to leave a memorable night tomorrow (Friday) for the Pirates family,” Riveiro told members of the media.

“We have an important game ahead of us, one of the most important,”

“We just have to prepare ourselves … to make sure we give our best and make sure we find ourselves in the group stages. That’s one of the objectives for the team this season. 

“We have everything to make it possible and we are looking forward to starting the game and show what we are capable of doing.” The Spaniard added. 

The Buccaneers have lost three games in a row and are on a mission to end this poor run of form. Jose Riveiro Stresses Importance of Reaching CAF Champions’ League Group Stages!
