Kenyan representatives in the CAF Confederations Cup, Kariobangi Sharks, will on Saturday, December 15, 2018, face off with Asante Kotoko in a CAF Confederations Cup tie.
This comes after the SportPesa shield defending champions ran over Arta Solar7 from Djibouti 9-1 on aggregate to book the Ghanaian side in the first round.
Sharks coach William Muluya has exuded confidence in his charges ahead of the match, noting that they have made adequate preparations and are raring to go.
“We are well prepared. Playing continental football is enough motivation for the boys and we are looking forward to posting a positive result on Saturday,” said the Sharks coach.

His counterpart Charles Kwablan meanwhile, noted that they would not underrate their opponents despite their inexperience on the continental scene.
“We cannot underrate them (Kariobangi Sharks) as they equally are a good team. We, however, will put our best foot forward and I’m confident we’ll go back home with a positive result,” he said.
The match has been slated for Saturday, December 15, 2018, at the MISC Kasarani starting 3 pm.
Ticket prices have been set at KES 200 (Regular) and 500 (VIP).
The match will also be LIVE on Kariobangi Sharks and Football Kenya Federation’s official social media pages.
