“It’s quite a good game but unfortunately we gave the game away. We just have go out and work on how to deal with pressure in away games. We conceded due to lack of concentration.
“It’s one of the fantastic goals I’ve seen. We came in to hold and hit them on encounter and that really worked perfectly for us.”
FC Samartex have how dropped to the sixth spot with ten points in the standing and will host newbies Hohoe United next at the Nsenkyire Sports Complex.
