South Africa’s three representatives in the 2022/23 CAF Confederation Cup on Tuesday discovered their next opponents.
Royal AM and Marumo Gallants both progressed to the second preliminary round of the 2022/23 CAF Confederation Cup after accounting for Zesco of Zambia and Madagascar’s Elgeco over the weekend.
Royal AM played a goalless draw against Zesco over the weekend before holding them to a 1-1 draw in Zambia, progressing courtesy of the away goals rule.
Gallants won 3-1 away before a 1-0 win at home. Their opponents for the next round have since been revealed after the draw was conducted on Tuesday in Cairo, Egypt.
The Durban outfit faces former African champions TP Mazembe of DRC, while the Limpopo side clash with Libya side Al Ahli Tripoli.
