Medeama boss, Evans Adotey, says he has a plan to frustrate Al Ahly and get a positive result in their 2023/24 CAF Champions League group stage opener.
The Ghana champions will take on the Egyptian heavyweights on Saturday night at the Al Salam Stadium in their first-ever game in the premiere African club competition.
Speaking at the pre-match press conference, Adotey disclosed his three-point plan to stop the record eleven-time winners of the tournament.
“Well, as a coach of Medeama and from Ghana, there are three things I am looking at. One is the functional guideline of Al Ahly – I mean their formational play.
“Two, the system of play!! I mean the functional guideline of a team within which each player has his own position, area of play and duties to perform.
“And finally, I’m looking at tactics. I have an idea about my opposition and I know how they will approach the game. I know the tactics to apply. I also know how eager they are to win the game tomorrow. I also have my secret under my sleeves just to frustrate Al Ahly to ensure that I go back home with a positive result.”
Medeama arrived in Cairo on Wednesday night and held their first training session about 24 hours later before wrapping up preparations on Friday night.
The game is set to kick off at 7 pm on Saturday.
