Asante Kotoko striker Steven Mukwala expressed the exhilarating feeling of scoring a brace against arch-rivals Hearts of Oak.
Mukwala's impressive performance contributed to the Porcupine Warriors' 3-2 victory over Hearts of Oak on Sunday at the Baba Yara Stadium in the Matchday 14 fixture.
After facing challenges earlier in the season, Mukwala has regained form, tallying four goals in three games, which included victories over Legon Cities and Berekum Chelsea.
In his post-match comments after receiving the Man of The Match Award, Mukwala stated, “It’s really amazing. I am speechless; scoring in a derby is a great feeling. In a derby…just get the three points and make the fans happy, that’s all."
Isaac Oppong, also a forward for Kotoko, nullified Linda Mtange’s first-half goal before Mukwala secured the victory with his two goals in the second half.
The win elevated Asante Kotoko to the 7th position in the league standings with 22 points. Their next challenge is hosting Real Tamale United in the Matchday 15 games at the Baba Yara Stadium.
