The CAF Confederation Cup semi-finals will finish with Tuesday’s matchup between Pyramids FC of Egypt and Guinean champions Horoya AC. This might be the most interesting matchup of all the matches this week, but Horoya have not played competitive football for a lengthy period and will have it all to do. Big-spending Pyramids are focused on securing their first trophy, and their level of talent is truly impressive, featuring Egyptian Premier League leading scorer Abdallah El Said. Pan-Africa Football previews a true “David versus Goliath” matchup:
