The Buccaneers have booked their place in the next round of the CAF Champions League after completing a 3-1 aggregate victory over La Cure Waves.

The Buccaneers sealed their progression with a convincing 3-1 win on Friday night, securing a 3-1 aggregate triumph and keeping their continental campaign on track.

Pirates will now turn their attention to the second preliminary round, where they will face Namibian champions African Stars for a place in the group stage.

Rapoo says head coach Abdeslam Ouaddou urged the players to start with intensity, with the team motivated by their desire to progress to the latter stages of the competition.

“We knew what we had to do from the start,” Rapoo said in his post-match interview.

“Coach (Abdeslam Ouaddou) told us that we have to score in the first 15 minutes and I think the guys were motivated because they wanted to reach the final stages of the CAF (Champions League).

“But we knew when we come here, home, that we have a 12th man supporter. So we had to start with good intensity, score first and keep going and score as many goals as we can.

“We knew what we had to do, they weren’t going to beat us at home. So we decided to keep going and create chances and we knew we going to get goals.

Maseko wasted little time making his presence felt, finding the back of the net twice as Copenhagen put on a dominant display to secure a convincing victory.

The South African’s goals mark a promising start to his spell with the Danish giants after completing his move from Mamelodi Sundowns.

His performance will come as an early boost as he looks to establish himself as an important figure at the club.

Copenhagen’s commanding result was further underlined by their attacking efficiency, with Maseko playing a key role in a performance that saw them run riot against Odense.

For Maseko, however, the focus will now be on building on this impressive introduction. After opening his account with a two-goal haul, the Bafana star will be eager to maintain his momentum and continue making an impact in Danish football.

The brace also provides an early glimpse of what Copenhagen supporters can expect from the pacey attacker as he begins a new chapter in his career.

Mofokeng started the encounter on the bench before being introduced in the 61st minute in place of Raul Florucz.

With the match ending 1-1 after regulation time against Club Brugge at the Jan Breydelstadion, the first piece of silverware of the season had to be decided by a penalty shootout.

“I’m happy because I won my first cup here,” Mofokeng said.

“Very excited for everyone, very welcoming and everyone was there for me to, to help me to boost my confidence. That’s why I went to the penalty.

“So I think my teammates are the best. That’s why we won this cup and we are family. So that’s why.”

The Glamour Boys have been in partnership with Kappa for three years and are heading into their fourth year together.

The new design pays homage to Amakhosi’s 1989 and 1992/93 seasons, with its bold black with gold and grey zigzag trimmings, forming a striking V-shape across the chest.

Speaking on the kit launch, Kaizer Chiefs’ Marketing Director Jessica Motaung said:

“Like we have done over the past three seasons, we have worked hard to come up with glamorous and stylish designs that manifest the spirit of our mantra for the season, The Kingdom Rises, intended to make our players and supporters stand out and be noticed, whether at the stadium or elsewhere.

“The away jersey roars with pride and is one very strong jersey. We thank Kappa again for their partnership and look forward to another season of success on and off the field.”

Meanwhile, Ricky Joseph of Kappa South Africa added:

“It is an honour to have South Africa’s biggest Club, Kaizer Chiefs, wearing the Kappa kit so proudly.”

“What is even more rewarding is seeing the jersey everywhere you go in South Africa, and across the continent during CAF competitions – from Angola to Democratic Republic of Congo, Zambia, and Egypt.

“We look forward to another successful season with Amakhosi. As we get into our fourth year, we truly believe that supporters and players will enjoy wearing these new kits.

“I once again congratulate our design team in Italy for maintaining such a high level of creativity.

“I believe that this season’s Kaizer Chiefs designs are our best yet, perfectly combining trendiness, history and culture all in one.”

The Kingdom Rises. 👑
