Asante Kotoko head coach, Prosper Narteh Ogum has expressed satisfaction over the performance of his players after securing a hard-fought win over Aduana Stars last Friday night in an epic tie.
The Porcupine Warriors recorded their second consecutive win of the season after narrowly edging the 'Ogya' lads by 1-0 in arguably the biggest fixture of 2023/24 Ghana Premier League match-day five.
Inform Kalo Ouattara scored again with a towering header from Richmond Lamptey's cross on the 34th minute to snatch all the three points for the 'Kum Apem' lads.
Speaking in a post-match interview, the enterprising gaffer explained what informed such a crucial win and added that, he is very proud of his lads and hopes for more of such performances in their subsequent matches. He said on StarTimes;
"I'm proud of the boys for their consistent performance; the way we played in Accra, they have been able to reproduce the same in Kumasi," he said.
"You can’t keep the intensity throughout; it was all about energy distribution. I think we expended a lot of energy in the first half, and in the second half, they came in with a lot of energy, but then we kept our structure on the pitch and changed our game approach, and it worked."
Asante Kotoko will be hosted by newbies Nations FC at the Dr. Kwame Kyei Sports Complex in the next round of matches this weekend.
