It's always tough for South African teams playing in North Africa as Orlando Pirates prepare to face SC Sfaxien of Tunisia tomorrow in the third game of the CAF Confederation Cup group game. Mahamutsa Gcaba To Miss Bucs' Confed Cup Clash Midfielder Issa Sarr told the Siya crew that they know how tough it is playing in any African country but they are ready for the challenge. He said that they have already played some tough games and have learnt from them how to handle the challenge and pressure of playing in Africa. "We are ready for the challenge. We have players who have been there and they are experienced to play in tough conditions in Africa and that's why we continue to do well. "Obvious it's not easy but we are ready for the challenge. We have to face it head on and win this game," the Senegalese-born midfielder observed. Bucs will look to avenge the defeat they suffered against the Tunisian outfit nine years ago, when Sfaxien narrowly beat the Buccaneers 1-0 in a CAF Champions League match nine years ago.
