Group B at the 2024-25 CAF Confederation Cup completed its second round of matches in the early slate of Confederation Cup action played on Sunday. Last season’s runners-up, RS Berkane of Morocco, are the clear dominant team in the group after securing a 3-1 victory in South Africa against Stellenbosch FC.

It was a trademark victory for Berkane who scored twice in the opening fifteen minutes and utilized their set piece brilliance to move beyond reach. Stellenbosch began to find their footing and scored a late consolation but it was too late for a club who have big ambitions in CAF club competition.

In Angola, CD Lunda Sul collected their first-ever point in continental competition with a 1-1 draw against Stade Malien in Luanda. Both goals arrived in the second half with a clever team movement giving visitors Stade Malien the lead before Lunda Sul leveled with a well executed short corner kick.
