After a highly contested encounter on Saturday, the Downs tactician has acknowledged Bucs' strength as the title race gathers speed. The Sea Robbers first went down and fought back to share spoils courtesy of a beautifully struck effort by a midfielder who was least expected to start.

There is not much time to rest for the Sea Robbers, as they are back in action for a domestic clash against their Premier Soccer League opponents. After elimination from the CAF Champions League despite fighting hard in the second leg of the preliminary round, it is now time to face another rival in another competition.

The Soweto giants are coming up against the defending champions on Tuesday in the last eight fixture that will be staged at the Orlando Stadium. The Sea Robbers were eliminated by the Dikwena Tsa Meetse in the 2024/25 edition, explaining why the mid-week fixture will be exciting. A recent CAF Champions League defeat will be a motivation for the home team.

The Buccaneers are out of the continent's premier club competition following what some might view as an unlucky exit from the tournament. Their Moroccan coach made a surprise selection of his starting line-up up which sparked debate, and he has come out to justify his choices.

GOAL gives you the details to follow the Soweto giants hosting the Railmen in this CAF Champions League second preliminary round, second leg match at Orlando Stadium on Saturday. It is a big task for the Buccaneers, who have to overturn a 3-0 defeat they suffered when they visited their Congolese opponents last weekend.
