In the CAF Confederations Cup, Hearts of Oak can overcome their three-goal deficit against AS Real Bamako, according to former Hearts of Oak forward Yaw Preko.
Hearts of Oak hopes to create a comeback in the second leg at Accra Sports Stadium after losing the first leg 3-0 and moving on at the expense of the Malian team.
Yaw Preko thinks the Phobians will reverse the result because they have a history of doing the unthinkable.
“This is Hearts of Oak and I have witnessed a similar situation before and I can say it is not over,” he said in an interview.
“In the first leg, Hearts of Oak decided to dash the game out which was unfortunate in the return leg. Things will definitely change.
The former Hearts assistant coach said that the players wouldn’t require any additional inspiration beyond the potential loss of their group stage spot.
“The players don’t need anything to beat ASR Bamako because the players know what is at stake. When I was there as an assistant coach, we had never won against Medeama at Tarkwa but with proper preparations, we went there and recorded a win.
“These players are capable of doing it,” he added.
The game will begin at the Accra Sports Stadium at 15:00 GMT.
