Primeiro De Agosto is not a bad team team, their highest achievement is playing in the semi-finals of the Champions League
In the last season Primeiro De Agosto finished second in the Angolan Premier League behind Petro Atletico who were champions
It is an army team that participated in the 2020/21 season of the confederation Cup and was defeated by Namungo Fc in the play-off stage
They are known for their dirty activities to opponets, CAF ordered all matches against Namungo Fc to be played in Tanzania after doing unprofessional behavior to Namungo Fc when they went to Angola to play the first leg match
When the corona epidemic was in full swing, several players of Namungo Fc were detained in the Army accused of having corona infection
Due to the misunderstanding that arose, CAF postponed the game and later ordered both matches to be played in Tanzania where Namungo Fc made good use of the Aza Complex stadium to win 6-2 in the first game and lost 3-1 in the game the second
In this tournament you should not underestimate your opponent. Preparations for the first leg game must start early and most importantly the leadership of Simba should be ready to avoid dirty games outside the field in Angola
