Zita Downplays Celebration Talk Ahead of Big Match

Kotoko coach Zita has tempered expectations ahead of the highly anticipated match against arch-rivals Hearts of Oak, emphasizing the complexity and unpredictability of the fixture.

Zita acknowledged Hearts’ strengths, saying, “They are not a bad side, but sometimes a little bit of luck eluded them when they played.” He added that the match will be challenging for both teams.

Zita expressed confidence in his team’s approach, stating, “We are going in with a winning mentality.” However, he emphasized that the outcome will be decided on the pitch, saying,
