The CAF Champions League is the most coveted football trophy on African soil, yet in the same breath, it is the most elusive to South African teams. For far too long, Southern Africa has barely had a say in this competition since Mamelodi Sundowns claimed the silverware way back in the 2015/2016 season.

One thing we know for sure, is to be the best, you have to beat the best and given the expectation that this competition expects, to go all the way and win the cup; you have to dig deep, be consistent, and focus on your strengths.
