Additionally, they were finalists in the UNIFFAC Cup in 2006.<\/p>\n<p>Paynesville FC, although new to CAF competitions, boasts a roster filled with seasoned players who have competed in the Champions League, Confederation Cup, and represented the national team.<\/p>\n<p>Coach Dominic Savice, who has successfully guided the team from the third division to the first division within three years, faces the challenge of delivering results, especially given the significant investments made in the club.<\/p>\n<p>The first-leg of the encounter is scheduled to take place in Paynesville, Liberia, at the Samuel Kanyon Doe Stadium, with the return-leg set for Cameroon between August 25 at the Amadou Ahidjo Stadium.<\/p>\n<p>The winner of this match will advance to face Stade Malien of Mali in the 2nd Preliminary Round.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Copyright\u00a92024 kick442.com-Cameroon<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>All rights reserved.
