Moerane however said the Crocodiles are not afraid of the three-time African champions.
“Going into tomorrow’s game, we are not going to show fear because one thing we have to do, is not to fear our opponents but we should give them respect,” Moerane said during his interaction with the media ahead of the game.
“We will be going with a lot of respect but not showing fear and that simple means, we are going to go and give them our best of what we have.
“We are not doing anyone a favour but playing for our country, playing for Basotho.”
