Hope has brilliantly qualified in the final of the African Champions League after its 1-0 victory in Pretoria against the team of Mamelodi Sundows.
With their victory in the first leg in Rades (1-0), the “blood and gold”, did not tremble tonight against Mamelodi Sundows, currently considered the best team on the continent.
However, the beginnings were difficult for the East after a first big parade of his Memmiche goalkeeper from the 3 ‘.
The meeting between Mamelodi Sundowns and Hope was then interrupted by a violent thunderstorm (22 ‘) and the players in the two camps had to return to the locker room while waiting for the end of the storm.
After several minutes of interruption, the game has always resumed the advantage of South Africans, dominators but not very dangerous in the face of a solid hope, especially in defense.
The 57 ‘marks the turning point of the match with a rapid “blood and gold” counter victoriously concluded by Raed Bouchniba. By leading 1-0, it is set out in the final but must always contain an opponent who presses, who gets opportunities but who confronts each occasion with a major day.
It is logically that Hope completes the match victoriously thanks to a very good application of its players.
