“The CAF journey has been very good but it was not easy. Sometimes we would spend around 15 hours traveling,” Ofori said as quoted by the southafrican.com.

“Things have not been as good in the PSL, but we have shifted our focus to the CAF competition and to make ourselves and the country proud by winning it,” continued Ofori.

“People remember the winners. People know those who make history by winning the trophy. We want to make history for ourselves and to be remembered as the guys who won this trophy for this big club,” he concluded.

Ofori's heroics in the competition can not be discredited after his penalty saving exploits in the quarter-finals against Simba SC.

He was also key to their victory in the semi-finals against Al Ahli Tripoli.
