"We are taking it match after match and I know with the kind of players we have, we can win the game against Ashgold here in Ghana", he added.

RS Berkane arrived in Ghana on Tuesday with a 38-man contingent. The team is currently based at the Golden Tulip Hotel in Kumasi.

RS Berkane were runners up in last season’s CAF Confederation Cup as they lost to Zamalek in the finals through the penalty shootout.
