Dreams FC's General Manager, Ameenu Shardow, believes that reaching the semi-finals of the CAF Confederation Cup showcases the potential for Ghanaian clubs to triumph in the continent's inter-club competitions.

The Still Believe side secured a spot in the last four of the competition in their debut attempt but bowed out after a 3-0 defeat to African powerhouse Zamalek.

Nonetheless, they became the first Ghanaian side to reach the semis since Hearts of Oak and Asante Kotoko did so in 2004.

After holding fruitful discussions with the Ghana Football Association, Shardow admitted the early challenges but showed gratitude to the football governing body for their intervention.

"The campaign was stressful, right from our registration to our participation in the competition, but the FA came through for us, and for that, we are immensely grateful," Shardow is quoted by ghanafa.org to have said.

"What we have done in this campaign is a big statement that Ghanaian football has a lot to offer. This shows that a Ghanaian club can win a trophy in the CAF-organized competitions soon."

Dreams FC could return to the competition if they win this season's FA Cup. Karim Zito's side will face Soccer Intellectuals on Thursday for a place in the semi-finals.
