Dreams FC striker, John Antwi has cautioned his teammates against complacency ahead of their return leg games against Zamalek SC in the CAF Confederation Cup.

The Ghana Premier League side will host the Egyptian side on Sunday at the Baba Yara Stadium with kick-off scheduled at 16:00GMT.

The FA Cup champions recorded a goalless scoreline in the first leg at the Cairo International Stadium.

Speaking to Joy Sports ahead of the game, Antwi underscored the need to approach Sunday’s match with the seriousness it deserves.

"First of all, we are not going to be complacent. We went and got a draw there and we know it (the reverse fixture) is going to be just as difficult here in Ghana. So like have always been doing, we are going back to prepare very well and meet them," the former Al Ahly striker said.

"For now, I will say we are a bit ahead. I mean, going there to get the goalless draw… If we are able to win by 1-0 here, we go through. So like I said earlier, we are not going to be complacent but we will work hard and get the win to go through to the next stage," he concluded.

Meanwhile, Dreams FC have announced that Sunday’s match at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium will be free of charge. However, tickets will be sold to persons who wish to be at the VIP and VVIP sections of the stadium.

Dreams have made the semi-final in what has been a record-breaking season. They are expected to leave for Kumasi for the much-anticipated game today.
