Insurmountable mission for Dembare

Dynamos will be hoping to perform a Houdini Act when they take on Tunisia's CA Bizertin in the first round, second leg of the CAF Champions League at Rufaro this afternoon.
Three second half goals from midfielder Harran Ahmed and defenders Ali Machani and Fakkherddine Jaziri in the first leg at the Stade October 15 three weeks ago saw the North African side assume a healthy lead going into the return leg.
Though the mission appears insurmountable - with Dynamos having struggled against opposition from north Africa in the past - Dynamos coach Kalisto Pasuwa remains upbeat.
"We now know what to expect from the opposition and we have done our preparations," he said.
Pasuwa said Zimbabweans should not read much into Dynamos' loss of form that has seen them going on a winless streak since February 17 when they beat Lesotho correctional Services 3-0 in the same competition.
Dynamos have just managed two one-all draws against Chicken Inn and Black Mambas while Bizertin have been racking points in Tunisia with a victory over Marsa and a draw against Zarsis in the last two games.
