The Vice President of the Ghana Football Association, George Afriyie, has cautioned the Porcupine Warriors to expect the worse when they travel to Congo for the CAF Confederation Cup 2nd leg game against Club Athlétique Renaissance Aiglon (CARA).
George Afriyie’s statement is premised on his experience with the Black Stars when the team travelled to Congo for the reverse fixture of their 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifiers where the Black Stars were left frustrated for about three hours at the airport after arriving in Congo.
The team was delayed upon arrival because their passports were held in the custody of the immigration.
Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ultimate Sports Show, George Afriyie, who doubles as the Director for Liberty Professionals Football Club said: “Nobody should deceive Asante Kotoko that the Congolese won’t intimidate them when they go there because they will”.
“Per my experience with them I can say for a fact that they won’t make it easy for them”, the experienced administrator said.
“Kotoko should prepare for the worst in Congo because they will frustrate them a lot”, he added.
“I’m happy they are putting measures in place to ensure they don’t go through what the Black Stars went through in Congo but they have to be on the lookout”, he advised.
The second leg is slated for February 21st at the Stade Alphonse Massamba Debat.
