After Young Africans suffered a 1-2 defeat against USM Alger in the first leg of the CAF Cup final, Fiston Kalala Mayele, the team’s striker, is determined to rally his team and make amends in the upcoming decisive match.
Despite the loss, Kalala Mayele showcased his prowess by scoring his 7th goal of the season during the first leg, making him the leading scorer in the continental competition this season. However, his goal was not enough to secure victory against the Algerian team.
Taking to Twitter, the 28-year-old Congolese star assured Young Africans fans of a better performance in the return leg, scheduled for June 3, 2023, in Algeria. He pledged to give his all and ensure that they “wet the jerseys” of their football team with pride.
With the fate of the CAF Cup final hanging in the balance, Kalala Mayele’s role will be crucial for Young Africans. His contribution, having been involved in 10 of their 16 goals in the CAF Cup this season, underscores his importance to the team’s success.
