CAF CC: John Antwi warns Dreams FC against complacency ahead of Zamalek clash

Dreams FC striker John Antwi has issued a caution to his teammates, emphasizing the importance of avoiding complacency ahead of their return leg match against Zamalek SC in the CAF Confederation Cup.

The Ghana Premier League side is set to host the Egyptian giants at the Baba Yara Stadium on Sunday, with kick-off scheduled for 16:00 GMT.

Dreams FC enters the fixture after securing a goalless draw in the first leg at the Cairo International Stadium.

Antwi, speaking to Joy Sports in anticipation of the upcoming game, stressed the need for his team to approach the match with utmost seriousness.

“First of all, we are not going to be complacent,” stated the former Al Ahly striker.

“We went and got a draw there, and we know the reverse fixture is going to be just as difficult here in Ghana.

So, as we have always done, we are going back to prepare very well and face them.”

Assessing their current position, Antwi expressed cautious optimism, noting, “For now, I will say we are a bit ahead.

I mean, going there to secure 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 secure the win to advance to the next stage.”

In a bid to rally support, Dreams FC announced that Sunday’s match at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium will be open to the public free of charge, with tickets available for those interested in the VIP and VVIP sections.
