Sunshine Stars\' midfielder Sunday Emmanuel has insisted his team are capable of beating Ahly in the semifinal of the African Champions League. \"We have huge respect for Ahly... but to say it\'s impossible to beat them, I totally disagree. After all, Kano Pillars once defeated them. So in football anything is possible,\" Emmanuel was quoted as saying on Supersports.com. Sunshine Stars qualified for the semifinal after finishing second in Group A behind defending champions Esperance de Tunis. \"I\'m confident we can beat them 3-0 in the first leg. That\'s the kind of score line we need and we will just wait for the second leg after that. But our focus now is the first leg. \"Really it doesn\'t matter that we\'ve not played competitive football after the league ended. I also want you to remember that we and Ahly are in a similar situation because their league has been suspended for a while but I know we will overcome them,\" he insisted. Six-time African Champions Ahly will travel to Nigeria on 4 October to face Sunshine Stars in the first-leg of the semifinal. Title holders Esperance of Tunisia take on four-time winners TP Mazembe of the DR Congo in the other semifinal clash.(ahram)
