CAF Confederation Cup: Luck eluded us - Dreams FC coach Karim Zito after losing to Zamalek in Kumasi

Dreams FC coach, Karim Zito, attributed his team's loss to Zamalek SC to a stroke of bad luck.

Despite holding their own with a hard-fought goalless draw in the first leg in Cairo, Dreams FC suffered a 3-0 defeat in the return leg of the CAF Confederation Cup semifinal at the Baba Yara Stadium.

Reflecting on the loss, Zito acknowledged his team's efforts in creating scoring opportunities but lamented their inability to capitalize.

"We created decent chances but lack eluded us against Zamalek. We started very well as a team but Zamalek were clinical and grabbed their chances," he told Asempa FM.

"We did our best but it was not enough. Credit to Zamalek for their win. They are experienced side in Africa."

However, Zito remains optimistic about his team's future.

"We have psyched the players up after the defeat but we will come good as a team."

Despite the disappointment, Dreams FC will shift their focus to their upcoming FA Cup quarterfinal against Soccer Intellectuals, scheduled for Wednesday at the Theatre of Dreams in Dawu.
