Medeama SC head coach Ibrahim Tanko remains confident that his team can overcome their first-leg deficit against TP Mazembe in the CAF Champions League preliminary round second leg. Despite suffering a narrow 1-0 defeat in Tarkwa, Tanko acknowledges TP Mazembe's tactical discipline and organisational prowess, which allowed them to counter-attack effectively in the first encounter.
However, Tanko believes his side created enough opportunities in the first leg and could have produced a different outcome if they converted their chances. With TP Mazembe holding a 1-0 advantage, Medeama will need to score in Lubumbashi while keeping Mazembe at bay to progress to the next stage of the tournament.
