After a showcase of resilience and grit in the opening fixtures, day two is set to begin in grand style.<\/p>\n<p>First on the agenda, host ASFAR, who got off to a perfect start with a resounding 3-0 victory against Angles De La Medina, will be aiming for consecutive semi-final appearances when they face TP Mazembe.<\/p>\n<p>Both teams secured wins in their respective games, but it was the 2023 finalists that caught the eyes of fans with their dominant 3-0 victory, the biggest scoreline of the first round. <\/p>\n<p>Youngster Doha El Madani, who has two goals in the tournament, will look to add to her tally. However, she will face a formidable TP Mazembe defence that holds strong against Western Cape.<\/p>\n<p>TP Mazembe\u2019s Larcho Marta, who earned the Woman of the Match award in their first game, has been passed fit to play, a boost for the Congolese club. <\/p>\n<p>Both teams have amassed three points and are positioned first and second on the table in Group A, making this tie one of the most anticipated matchups.<\/p>\n<p>Defending champions Mamelodi Sundowns were shocked in their first game, losing to debutants FC Masar. <\/p>\n<p>Sundowns will be eager to get their quest for defending the title back on track. With nearly 50% of Banyana Banyana\u2019s squad in the team, Mamelodi Sundowns, currently third in Group B, will go into this tie as the favourites.<\/p>\n<p>Their opponent, CBE Women, suffered a 3-0 defeat in their opening match and languished at the bottom of the table. <\/p>\n<p>However, FC Masar\u2019s surprise victory over Sundowns has shown that the South African team is beatable, which will no doubt fuel CBE\u2019s confidence ahead of the game.<\/p>\n<p>In the other match in Group B, it will be a battle of debutants. Both teams recorded victories in their maiden appearances at the tournament. <\/p>\n<p>Edo Queens beat CBE Women 3-0, while Masar secured a 1-0 victory over Mamelodi Sundowns.<\/p>\n<p>Emem Essien of Edo Queens has been in top form leading up to the tournament and continued her excellent form by scoring the opener in their 3-0 win. <\/p>\n<p>With her in attack, Edo Queens could be one win away from reaching their first-ever semi-final appearance.<\/p>\n<p>In the final match of day two in Group A, Western Cape and Medina will both be hoping to avoid defeat. Anything less than a win for either team would result in an exit from the competition.<\/p>\n<p>With 9 goals already scored in the first four games, teams fighting for survival, players aiming for the top scorer&#8217;s award, and semi-final spots up for grabs, day two of the CAF Women\u2019s Champions League is sure to bring out the zeal and determination of both clubs and players.<\/p>\n<p>FKA\/OGB<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CAF Women&#8217;s champions League trophy Day two of the 2024 CAF Women\u2019s Champions League kicks off on Tuesday afternoon.
