Asante Kotoko, Hearts of Oak can never use the players in Africa - Karim Zito brags after Dreams FC after CAF CC second round of qualification

Published on: 28 August 2023

Dreams FC coach, Karim Zito claims Asante Kotoko and Hearts of Oak can never make it to the next round of the CAF Confederations Cup with his players.

The 'Still Believe' lad on Sunday secured a qualification to the next round of the competition after beating Guinean side, Milo FC.

After a 1-1 draw in the first leg, Dreams FC recorded a 2-1 win at the Accra Sports Stadium in the return leg of the preliminary round of games.

Following the qualification to the next round of the competition, the veteran trainer praised his players.

He also took a swipe at the two biggest clubs in the country and said they couldn't have qualified for the next round with the current crop of players he has in possession.

"These my boys? Asante Kotoko will never use them for Africa, and Hearts of Oak will never use them for Africa. But we’ve advanced to the next stage against all odds," Zito said in this post-match conference.

Dreams FC will not take on Sierra Leonean side, Khallon FC in the second round of the preliminary games.

The Ghanaian side will host Khallon FC at the Accra Sports Stadium on September 15 before travelling for the second-leg game on September 29 at the Southern Arena Stadium.
