Djuma with his players |
Rayon
Sports’ Burundian coach, Masudi Djuma will employ different tactics and draft
in several new players as he plans to spring a surprise when his side takes on
Rivers United in a second leg, CAF Confederation Cup game in Kigali on
Saturday.
Rivers
United beat Rayon Sports 2-0 in the first leg in Port Harcourt five days ago
with Emeka Atuloma and Guy Kuemian plundering the goals for the ‘Pride of
Rivers’.
Djuma
has now revealed a master plan which he believes will see his side progress to
the group stages of Africa’s second tier club competition at the expense of the
‘Pride of Rivers’.
“We
will change our tactics and some of the players who took part in the first leg
will not be available in the second leg,” Djuma told explained.
The
former Burundi U23 assistant coach then took the time to stress that he is
confident in the ability of his charges to overturn the 2-0 deficit from the
first leg.
“This
is not the first time Rayon has lost the first leg of a tie 2-0 and turned it
around. We have also lost a game 3-0 and qualified after the second leg so
there is no need to panic. I trust in God, believe in myself and also my players
who I know will get the job done on Saturday,” he said.
Djuma
will however have to make do without the services of Congo DR forward, Fabrice
Mugeni will not play as he is suspended.
Mugeni
who played in the first leg in Port Harcourt picked up bookings in consecutive
matches and as such, will be suspended for the game on Saturday.
Defender,
Munezero Fiston has also been ruled out and will most likely be replaced by
Ange Mutsinzi Jimmy.
Star
striker of Rayon Sports, Moussa Camara is a doubt for the game as he sustained
an ankle injury in training and faces a late fitness test.
