Former Hearts of Oak defender Dan Quaye is backing his former side to go the long haul in the CAF Confederation cup after a 2-1 away win the first leg tie against Djoliba.
Coach Herbert Addo’s side have defied all odds and are on the brink of securing qualification to the money zone of the CAF Confederation League.
The Phobians will need to avoid defeat in the second leg at home to seal qualification to the much desired money zone and Quaye who was a member of the 2000 CAF Champions League winning team says Hearts are in shape to better things this season.
“When we won the Champions League in 2000 we beat this same Djoliba so I am very certain that they pull it over them again,” Quaye told Citi FM
“I have monitored them very well and I think they have what it takes to go a long way in the competition.”
Hearts warmed up for the tie on Wednesday with hard earned 1-1 drawn game against league leaders Hearts of Oak.
