Moroccan top flight side FUS Rabat are set to arrive in Uganda this Saturday, 16th April ahead of their return leg with SC Villa in the CAF Confederations Cup.
The return leg is scheduled to be played on Wednesday, 20th April at Nelson Mandela National stadium, Namboole. The development was confirmed by FUFA’s spokes person Ahmed Hussein yesterday during the weekly press conference at FUFA house in Mengo, Kampala.
“FUS Rabat arrive on Saturday, 16th April 2016 with a 32-man contingent. Our representatives, SC Villa Jogoo need all our support,” Ahmed Hussein is quoted on the federation’s website.
The Jogoos were humiliated in the first leg in Morocco with a 7-0 thumping, leaving them with a very slim chance of progressing to the next stage of the continental competition.
They however will have to play for the pride of their country like left back Isaac Muleme recently revealed shortly after the first leg in Morocco.
