There is everything one could wish for in this draws. Mao Tse Tung wasn’t wrong when he made the assertion ‘the journey of a thousand miles begins with a step’. It’s been decades since a club from the region won the trophy, but Victoria united had a powerful run that saw them get to the semi finals in the 2017, a similar run by any club from the region would be considered a success.
