2018 Confederation Cup: Zdravko Lugarusic urges Asante Kotoko to overcome CARA Club hurdle

Former coach of Asante Kotoko Zdravko Lugarusic has thrown his weight behind the club ahead of their second leg encounter against CARA Club in the CAF Confederation Cup.

Lugarusic, who now the head Coach of the Sudanese national team team, believes the Porcupine Warriors have it takes to eliminate their Congolese counterparts on Wednesday.

“I hope and believe Kotoko will produce good results in Brazzaville because they have to represent Ghana Football properly to show Ghana league is better than Congo league,” Logarusic told Oyerepa FM.

“I will be surprised if Kotoko fail to qualify on Wednesday against CARA Brazzaville because they have everything at their disposal and even the 1-0 win in the first leg isn’t a bad result because CARA will have to score twice and make sure they don’t concede,” he added.

Kotoko have a slender advantage ahead of the game after winning the first leg 1-0 thanks to Yakubu Mohammed’s late effort, after Amos Frimpong, Baba Mahama and Sadick Adams missed three penalties within regulation time.
