Johannesburg - Bidvest Wits romped to a 3-0 victory over Light Stars in their Confederation Cup match at Stade d'Amitie, Seychelles, on Saturday.

Veteran midfielder Dillon Sheppard was on target to help his side to a 1-0 lead. Sibusiso Vilakazi made it 2-0 in the 25th minute when he produced a clinical finish to double his side's advantage.
