Dreams FC coach Abdul Karim Zito has stated that his team will not underestimate Zamalek in the second leg of their CAF Confederation Cup semi-final match.
Zito’s team held the former champions to a goalless draw at Cairo International Stadium, despite the home team’s dominance.
The Ghanaian team showed great resilience and managed to prevent Zamalek from winning. As a result, they returned home as the happier side and are now looking forward to the second-leg encounter.
The match is scheduled to take place at the Baba Yara Stadium on Sunday, April 28, 2024, and Zito, the coach, is well aware of the challenges that lie ahead.
“We’ve put the first leg aside – we know it will be very difficult as it looks very frightening, but it is not impossible,” Karim Zito said, as quoted by Akoma Sports.
The experienced coach is confident of securing victory, even if the game has to be decided after regulation time.
“We are ready should the game travel to penalties, but we aim to end the game within 90 minutes,” he stated.
Zamalek arrived in Kumasi on Thursday, April 25 to continue their preparations for the anticipated encounter.
