CAF Confederation Cup: We will implement offensive strategy against Zamalek in return leg - Karim Zito
Karim Zito
Dreams FC coach Karim Zito has hinted at plans to implement offensive tactics against Zamalek SC in the second leg of the CAF Confederation Cup.
The Ghana Premier League side will clash with the Egyptian powerhouse at the Baba Yara Stadium having recorded a goalless scoreline in the first leg at the Cairo International Stadium.
Although Dreams were on the defensive for the majority of that clash, they managed to keep the opponent's attackers at bay.
Ahead of the return leg, Zito is looking to take a more proactive approach by facing Zamalek on the front foot.
“We have to plan seriously how to face them. We change the pattern anyway,” he told Joy Sports.
“I will not sit back because 1-1, 1-0, we all have the chances [to qualify].
“But the advantage we are having is we are playing home and they don't have the number 12 [home support]."
Meanwhile, Dreams FC announced free entry for Sunday’s match at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium, although tickets will still be sold for those wishing to access the VIP and VVIP sections.
The team is expected to leave for Kumasi later today for the game on Sunday. Kick-off for the much-anticipated game is scheduled at 16:00GMT.
Should they eliminate Zamalek, the Still Believe side will become the first Ghanaian club to advance to the final since Hearts of Oak and Asante Kotoko did so in 2004.
