Rangers head coach, Fidelis Ilechukwu, emphasized that the Flying Antelopes will not underestimate their opponents in the preliminary round of the CAF Champions League.
The Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) champions were drawn against Union Sportive Zilimadjou, a club from Comoros, on Thursday.
Ilechukwu warned that there are no longer any minor teams on the continent.

“No team is a small team in the continent anymore. We respect our opponents in the CAF Champions League,” Ilechukwu stated.
Rangers will travel to Moroni, the capital of the island of Comoros, to take on their champions on August 16, 17 or 18 with the return leg in Enugu a week later.
The winner will face either St Louis of Mauritius or Angola’s GDSE in the second preliminary round.
