With back-to-back matches against DRC giants TP Mazembe coming up, SuperSport United have done well to collect four points in their first two CAF Confederation Cup group matches to boost confidence and build momentum.

Matsatsantsa are top of Group D on four points after their 5-3 victory over Gabonese outfit CF Mounana. Thabo Mnyamane and Jeremy Brockie bagged a brace each, while right-back Grant Kekana also scored.

Although they travelled without coach Stuart Baxter, who is set to announce his first Bafana squad at Safa House today, they got the job done. Stand-in coach Kaitano Tembo did a good job to lead the side to victory, but he'll have a tough challenge against TP Mazembe, first in Lubumbashi on June 4. Tembo was pleased with the victory, but not happy that they conceded three goals.

"[I'm] not happy with the three goals conceded, but I am happy with overall performance of the team. We always score goals.

"If we play our normal football, we always create chances. We are playing many competitions, but we always try to take it a game at a time.

"We played the [Nedbank] semifinal and came here [to Gabon] and did well," said Tembo, who gave an opportunity to players such as Kekana, Keegan Ritchie and Fagrie Lakay.

"We rested some players, and the ones who played were fresher and they did well. We don't choose tournaments. We try to put a strong team in every game we play."

Both United and Dikwena must now switch focus to the domestic front this weekend, when the face each other at Lucas Moripe Stadium in their final Absa Premiership fixture.
