Pirates coach's plea for fans to fill the stadium

Ouaddou’s Pirates will face DRC’s Saint-Eloi Lupopo in the second leg of the CAF Champions League second round at the venue (kickoff is at 3pm).

Having lost the first leg 3-0 in Lubumbashi last weekend, the Buccaneers need to score four unanswered goals in order to advance to the group stages of the competition.

“We need them [the fans]. In this kind of game on Saturday, we need the 12th man behind us. I hope the stadium will be packed because they have to push us.
