It was uncertain as usual what would unfold as Lidoda Duvha went to Sudan a week ago to take on Al Merreikh of Sudan in the CAF Confederations Cup.

The team arrived to rather a warm welcome by the Sudenese and they prepared well for their encounter. The game took place on the 30 June 2012 and after a great display of character Leopards lost the encounter with a 3-2 loss to Al Merreikh.

Do not get it wrong as that was the first leg of the fixture. The return leg will be at home for Black Leopards and the 2 away goals may come to be of advantage to the Limpopo based side.

After the tough encounter though, it was all smiles at the camp as the team was preparing to go back home. But for a good relaxing time after such a hectic match the team took of to the pools to have some rather chilled team building.

Swimming not only relaxes the players but it restores their muscles for quick recovery. That is what the team did and as they wait for the second leg they will keep the memories of the Sudanese travel as a reminder that there job is not yet done.
