The Frenchman said the brewers will not shrink back but will come at their opponents with an unstoppable force.

“We will still have a good possession game. This will not change…they will not have the ball…this will not change. They will try to preserve the result and have one or two opportunities in counter-attack. We know what we are going to face now it is up to us to be proud and brave enough and to have the desire and the will to win the game,” Mette said.

The domestic cup champions cross the border in desperate need of a win after a 1-0 loss to the African giants in the first leg of the tie at the Nyayo Stadium on Sunday evening.

Congolese import Jeancy Mboma scored the all-important goal at the start of the second half, squeezing his shot from the left past his fellow countryman, Perrauld Ndinga, who had left his near post unguarded.
