FOLLOWING their disappoint­ing campaign in the CAF Champions League, which saw them crashing out in the preliminar­y stages, Botswana Football League (BFL) defending champions, Gaborone United (GU), have set their sights on dominating the local football scene again.

The Money Machine won a cup double last season, winning the Orange Cup to add to their league triumph. The Gaborone outfit shared their plans for the season during a Media Open Day on Wednesday. The assistant coach told journalist­s that the cup double has given them motivation to go for more silverware this season.

“It’s now in our veins. We crave more success,” said Moloi.

The gaffer, who recently acquired his CAF B Licence, said they have beefed up their squad with good quality players, whom he believes give them an edge.

“We are always looking to add fresh faces to our squad, and bring in hungry players to help this team succeed,” said Moloi.

Moloi said they also want their presence to be felt in the CAF Champions League, despite their stutter in the first hurdle last season.

The Gaborone giants fell to the DRC outfit, AS Vita, losing 3-2 on aggregate despite winning their home match 1-0.

“I believe our performanc­e in the CAF Champions League was not bad because we won the first leg by a goal to nil then we lost 3-1 in the away game. Our plan was obviously to go further in the competitio­n but we bowed out and there are lots of positives that we got from the competitio­n,” he said.
