“This [CAF Confederation Cup] is our level at the moment. We are in Confederation Cup, I think that’s the right level for us,” Coach Zachariassen told Kotoko Express App.
“We’ve got to have to be realistic.
We’ve got to be realistic because we have only worked together for three months,” the Norwegian trainer added.
