Africa-Press – Sierra-Leone. Sierra Leone Premier League runners-up Bhantal FC are bracing for a tough challenge as they face Hafia FC of Guinea in the second leg of the CAF Confederation Cup in Conakry.
After a 3-0 defeat in the first leg at the Southern Arena, Bhantal are staring down a significant deficit, with the visitors holding a commanding advantage heading into the return match.
Hafia, who finished as runners-up in the Guinean Ligue 1, were always considered the favorites, and their form in the first leg showed why.
The presence of players like Salifou Camara, who scored Hafia’s opening goal in the first leg, will give Bhantal further cause for concern. With Camara in top form, stopping him on his home turf will prove to be a daunting task for the Sierra Leoneans.
Football pundits have largely written off Bhantal’s chances, particularly after their failure to find the back of the net in the first leg. To advance, they would need to score at least four goals while keeping a clean sheet—an almost impossible feat without a stroke of brilliance.
Bhantal’s hopes of a miracle are slim, but stranger things have happened in football.
