All the best Rangers. I just checked their group and saw that they are in the same group with former CAF champions league and confed cup winners Etoile du Sahel and CAF competitions regulars CS Safxien. Not an easy group at all, I hope they pull through

CAF names 2018 FIFA World Cup referee as the “center man” for Rangers Confederation Cup game


The respected Gambian referee Papa Bakary Gassama has been appointed by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) to officiate Sunday’s Confederation Cup game between Nigeria’s Rangers International and Saltas FC in Enugu. Gassama, 39, is widely respected as one of Africa’s best arbiters and will now officiate the game between two West African sides inside the scorching sun at the Nnamdi Azikwe Stadium on Sunday. He will be assisted by compatriot Abdul Aziz Bollel Jawo and Issa Yaya from Chad.


The game will be the first group outing for both Rangers and their Burkina Faso opponents Salitas in Group B of this year’s Confederation Cup after both sides negotiated what was a tortuous schedule successfully.

Rangers who won Nigeria’s Cup competition the AITEO Cup last year have been in a great form in the Confederation Cup, winning five and drawing just one of their six games so far with their midfielder Godwin Aguda currently the competition’s joint top scorer with five goals.

With a new stage getting underway in Africa’s second club cup competition, Rangers head coach Gbenga Ogunbote will now be able to parade some of his fresh acquisitions including striker Bobby Clement and 2014 World Cup star Michael Uchebo. Sunday’s game will kick off at 2pm Nigerian time at the Stadium nicknamed Cathedral during Rangers’ league success in 2016. The group’s other game; a Tunisian derby between Etoile du Sahel and CS Sfaxien will hold later on Sunday evening (5pm local time) at the Olympic Stadium in Sousse.

Gbenga Ogunbote’s wards will test their might against the highest ranked team in the competition Etoile du Sahel as well as CS Sfaxien, both from Tunisia in Group B with Burkina Faso side Salitas FC completing the group. Rangers are unbeaten in this year’s competition after six matches during which they won five and drew just one, the latest; a 2-1 win over Bantu FC of Lesotho which sealed their passage into the group stage of the competition.

They will then travel to Tunisian side CS Sfaxien who have in their ranks, former Nigeria youth international Kingsley Sokari ten days in the city of Sfax. Rangers will then face group favourites Etoile du Sahel in a double header fixture on February 24 and March 3 in Sousse and Enugu respectively.

i thought football thread has been banned on FP. Throughout midweek and yesterday, we didn't see anything

Wishing Rangers all the best. We all love Enugu.

The Flying Antelopes will surely win this.

If i were Thierry Henry, I will apply for the post of a technical manager of Enugu Rangers...

Nigerians are not serious.Lobi stars played in same stadium yesterday.Stadium was almost empty.No body to cheer them up.Enugu is a neighbouring state to Benue,Yet the Benue FA cudnt mobilize fans to cheer the team up.If useless people like Buhari and Atiku come to that stadium now,more than 100k people will troop out and be shinning their useless teeth open.I felt Pity seeing Lobi playing in a near empty stadium in a match they needed all the components of a home advantage.They lost anyways.

This is a must win for Rangers...

Not an easy group at all

Go Enugu Rangers win this one for us.

Aswear, Nigerians are the craziest set of people in the world. Same thing I wondered yesterday.. If these useless politicians come around now, the stadium would be filled to the top. So Benue people couldn't afford to travel to watch their local club play such an important match. If na Arsenal come play match, Arsenal too big, second decision club in Europe, people would av slept over night. My bro, no one loves naija.

Enugu rangers international 1 : 0
