Asante Kotoko striker, Steven Dese Mukwala is very pleased to hit brace and added it always feels great to score and win against their biggest rivals Hearts of Oak.
The Porcupine Warriors after winning 2-3 in the first leg in Accra, put up another explosive performance to humble the Phobians by a resounding 2-0 in match-day 31 at the Baba Yara Stadium over the weekend.
Two goals in each half of the game from Ugandan striker Steven Mukwala was enough to hand the Reds all three points and and send the streets of Kumasi in raptures.
Speaking after the game, the enterprising forward explained how he was able to score all two goals and topped up that he is very pleased so as his colleagues and teammates.
"I'm very delighted and you know how it means winning at Baba Yara against the rivals Hearts of Oak. I'm really happy. I know the fans, players and the technical team are all happy."
"That was a tactical approach. They were two players defending against me so I had to distance myself from them though they didn't know the position I was."
"With the second goal, it was just an instinct. I saw him coming full out so I had to reduce my speed that's how I was able to score."
Asante Kotoko have now climbed up to the ninth position on the table with 43 points and will host Great Olympics in match-day 32 on Sunday, June 2, 2024.
