Township Rollers’ coach Nikola Kavazovic has downplayed his side’s aspirations of winning the CAF Champions League saying the chances are very minimal. Kavazovic led his side to the group stages of the club continental competition for the first time in the history of any local football club.

The Blues played to a goalless draw against Young Africans of Tanzania in the second leg, but advanced to the prestigious stage of competition on a 2-1 aggregate score. Speaking to journalists after the weekend’s game, Kavazovic said his side has minimal chance of winning the CAF title.  He said his primary objective was to advance to the group stages while making Rollers one of the football giants of Africa.
