Head Coach of Ghana Premier League Champions, Aduana Stars, Coach Yussif Abuabakar has admitted the players know what is at stake for them in the champions League, and reaching the money zone is enough motivation.
The "Ogya Boys" will host Libyan side, Al Tahaddy in the CAF Champions League second leg of the preliminary round on Wednesday in Dormaa.
Aduana Stars trail the tie by a goal after losing to Tahaddy in the first leg in Egypt.
Howver, Coach Yussif Abubakar, who was speaking at the pre-match conference reaffirmed the clubs determination to reach the money zone.
“The possibility to reach the money zone, is enough motivation for the players and they have their integrity to protect as well,” he told the media at the pre-match conference.
“Before the first match in Egypt their coach had confessed they didn’t know the playing style of Aduana and we also didnt know them very well."
“So its not surprising they wanted to come to Dormaa ahead of time to prepare a well for us. They had studied us and we are also studying them."
“I know they are good in counter attacks and we also did same with 50-50 balls,” he added.
Aduana Stars last represented Ghana in the competition in 2009, when they won the Premier League in their maiden season.
