Karim Zito has done tremendously well – Mohammed Polo lauds Dreams FC coach for explosive Confederation Cup campaign

Ghana legend Mohamed Polo has eulogized Dreams FC coach Abdul Karim Zito for his outstanding performance in the ongoing CAF Confederation Cup campaign.

The Still Believe lads are close to clinching their maiden Confederation Cup title. After holding Zamalek to a pulsating goalless draw in Cairo in the first leg, the Ghanaian FA Cup champions heads into the return leg with the advantage.

Dreams FC will take the 2019 champions at the Baba Yara Stadium on Sunday in the Confederation Cup semifinals.

Polo commended Zito’s efforts, highlighting how they have alleviated some of the pressure on the Ghana Football Association (GFA) amid the challenges faced in the sport.

“I think he has done tremendously well because the expectation brought tension on the FA. I have already mentioned that this GFA is the best FA I have ever seen. I have been in the system and been with the FA. I have seen different GFAs, but this is one of them who has come and impacted our football.”

Zamalek arrived in Kumasi on Thursday with a chartered flight to continue their preparation for the crucial encounter.

The Egyptian outfit will train at the match venue 24 hours before kickoff as mandated by the competition’s rule and regulations.

The match holds immense significance for Dreams FC, as they aim to become the first Ghanaian side in two decades to reach the final of the Confederation Cup. The last time a Ghanaian team achieved this feat was in 2004 when Hearts of Oak and Kotoko faced off in the final, with Hearts emerging victorious.
