SuperSport United coach Gavin Hunt has admitted that his side will find it difficult to reach the CAF Confederation Cup quarter-finals after a 2-0 loss to USM Alger at Peter Mokaba Stadium on Sunday.

Matsantsa are now bottom of Group A after two losses in two games.

Hunt has previously complained about injuries to his squad and how demanding it was to play in Africa with a ‘thin’ squad.
