Caf Confederation Cup: San Pedro wary of 'big club' Asante Kotoko

San Pedro technical director Abid Haythem believes the Ivorian club are capable of causing an upset when they face Ghana's Asante Kotoko in the Caf Confederation Cup.

The two sides are set for a showdown in the play-off round of the second-tier continental inter-club championship for a place in the group stage.

Victory over the 2004 finalists Kotoko will be another major feat for the Ivorians following a 3-0 aggregate triumph over Santoba FC of Guinea 3-0 in the last round.

“We had a little bit of fear when we saw we had been drawn against Asante Kotoko, checking their [pedigree] in African football," Haythem is quoted to have told Light FM in Kumasi.
