CAF Champions League: Ilechukwu upbeat Rangers will see off US Zilimadjou’s challenge

Rangers head coach, Fidelis Ilechukwu has said his side will do the double over US Zilimadjou of Comoros, DAILY POST reports.

The Nigerian champions defeated their hosts 1-0 in the first leg of their CAF Champions League preliminary round encounter on Sunday.

Frank Uwumiro scored the decisive goal off a header in the 22 minute.

Reflecting on the game, Ilechukwu said his team should have scored more goals in the first half.

“It was a game we had control over in the first stanza and could have scored more goals that would have killed any fight back from our opponent.

“We lowered our guard in the second stanza and they came out to attack but we stood out to see off the encounter,” he told reporters after the game.

“We will go back to the drawing board to prepare very well for the return leg and we are positive going forward.”
