CAF INTERCLUB COMPETITIONS: Eswatini Teams Advance

81

Eswatini football has every reason to celebrate as both Nsingizini Hotspurs F.C. and Royal Leopard F.C. have successfully progressed to the next round of the TotalEnergies CAF Interclub Competitions preliminary stages.

For Nsingizini Hotspurs F.C., their maiden appearance in the TotalEnergies CAF Champions League has already produced unforgettable moments. After suffering a narrow 1–0 defeat away to Zimbabwe’s Simba Bhora F.C. in Francis Town on September 21, 2025; the Eswatini side returned home with renewed determination. On September 28, at the Somhlolo National Stadium, they rose to the occasion, pushing the tie to penalties in the very last minute. Defender Nkosingiphile Shongwe delivered a thunderous goal that ignited wild celebrations among the crowd. With the aggregate score tied at 1–1, Nsingizini Hotspurs F.C. demonstrated incredible composure during the penalty shootout, winning 4–2 and securing their place in the next round of the preliminary stage. Their resilience and fighting spirit marked a proud moment for the club and for Eswatini football.

Meanwhile, Royal Leopard F.C. proved their class in the CAF Confederation Cup against Namibia’s Young African F.C. They set the tone early with a solid 2–0 away victory on September 20 in St. Francis Town (Botswana), before sealing the deal in emphatic style at Somhlolo National Stadium on September 26, 2025. They dominated their opponents with a commanding 5–0 victory, completing a remarkable 7–0 aggregate triumph that underscored their strength and experience in African competitions.

With both Nsingizini Hotspurs F.C. and Royal Leopard F.C. advancing, Eswatini football celebrates not just the victories of two clubs but a collective achievement that highlights the growth and potential of the domestic game. Their performances remind us that our teams can stand tall on the African stage, inspiring players, fans, and the nation.

Congratulations to both clubs for their historic achievements, and may the journey ahead bring even greater success!
