CAF Champions League qualification did not come on a silver platter – Medeama President Moses Armah

President of Medeama Sporting Club, Moses Armah, says the club had to face a lot of challenges en route to reaching the group stage of the CAF Champions League.

Medeama sealed a slot to represent Ghana at this year’s competition after winning the Premier League while they also overcame two teams in the qualifiers to earn a spot in the Money Zone.

Their last game in the qualifiers saw them lose 2-1 to Horya but a first-leg score of 3-1 at the Cape Coast Stadium made it possible for them to advance to the group stage.

Speaking at a presser organised by the club on Monday, October 2, Armah highlighted the ordeal the club suffered in reaching the stage.

“We made his history together in Conakry last Saturday and this is a memorable event we must all cherish,” he said.

“Even though we qualified, we want to highlight that it didn’t come on a silver platter and we know a far more difficult task ahead as we will play against the giants in African club football in the group stage.

“As a result, we will need most and all forms of support to make our Champions League journey successful.”

Medeama are expected to be back in action on Thursday when they play Nsoatreman in their m matchday three fixture of the Ghana Premier League.
