We are disappointed after CAF Confederation Cup exit – Nsoatreman FC

-

Nsoatreman FC General Manager, Eric Alagidede has expressed disappointment following their exit from the CAF Confederation Cup.

The Ghanaian side has been crashed out of the Confederation Cup in the second round of the preliminary round of games.

The FA Cup champions suffered a 3-0 aggregate scoreline against CS Constantine. In the first leg staged at the Accra Sports Stadium, Nsoatreman suffered a 2-0 defeat before suffering a 1-0 defeat in the second leg held at the Stade Mohamed-Hamlaoui.

Reacting to their elimination, Alagidede admitted that they were playing above themselves due to the opponents they played against.

“We were punching above our weight. We are disappointed because playing against North African teams are always difficult because they have the backing the country, so we just have to stay focused and ensure we play in the group phase next time,” he told Asempa FM‘s Ultimate Sports Show.

“If we are able to compete well and keep this team, I am convinced we will return to Africa and play in the group stage,” he added.

Nsoatreman FC qualified to play in the second round after beating Chadian side Elect Sport.

Yaw Preko and his charges now turn their attention to the domestic games where they are expected to compete in the Ghana Premier League and the FA Cup.

Nsoatreman FC will be hosted by Accra Lions in the Matchday four games at the University of Ghana Sports Stadium this weekend.
