Young Africans will face USM Algers in the final of the 2023 CAF Confederation Cup with first leg on 28th May, 2023 , BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The first leg will hold in Tanzania at the Benjamin Mkapa Stadium while second leg holds on 3rd June at the Stade du 5 Julliet, Stadium in Algiers.

The Rivers United conquerors have meandered into the CAF Confederation Cup final for the first time ever courtesy of a 4-1 aggregate victory over South Africa's Marumo Gallants.

The envoys have produced a 2-1 success in the second leg match at Royal Bafokeng Stadium in South Africa on Wednesday evening.

Fiston Mayele and Kennedy Musonda netted in each half to steer their side to the finishing line of the marathon.

However, the hosts pulled one goal back in the stoppage time, thanks to Ranga Chivaviro's header which was too little to save his team from the downfall.

He has since matched Mayele as each has scored six goals in the competition hence the latter could claim the golden boot if he nets in the finals.

History has been made as for the first time, Tanzania parade a side in the finals of the CAF managed contest.
