Black Stars winger Solomon Asante is happy about TP Mazembe’s CAF Champions League semi-final qualification berth.

The 25-year-old excelled in full throttle as the Ravens posted a massive 5-0 win over Moroccan side Moghreb Tetouan on Saturday afternoon.

A hat-trick from inform Tanzanian striker Mbwana Samatta and a goal each from Zambian Rainford Kalaba and Ivorian Roger Assale sealed a lopsided triumph for the Congolese giants.

The former Berekum Chelsea pint-size wing-wizard feels excited with the qualification and reveals winning the title remains their ultimate target.

“I’m very pleased with what we have achieved so far and especially the results of the game. It says a lot about our quality,” he told GHANAsoccernet.com.

Asante says winning the Champions League title remains top of their priorities this season.

“It remains on top of our target this season to win the title and that’s why we are fighting all season. We’ll fight to win it,” he added.
