Despite reaching the MTN FA Cup semifinals, King Faisal assistant coach, Godwin Ablordey, has reaffirmed the team’s desire to remain in the Ghana Premier League.
King Faisal defeated Aduana Stars in a penalty shootout to go to the tournament’s semifinals after playing out a 2-2 draw following 120 minutes of action.
King Faisal are only four points above the relegation zone on the league standings with 32 points, despite their impressive performances in the FA Cup.
And according to Ablordey, the league should be their top concern, and they need to concentrate on staying in the league.
“I’m not thinking about the FA Cup. I’m thinking about the league because we have to stay in the league. FA Cup, when you are out, you can still play, so we are just concentrating on the league to make sure we stay in the league,” he told StarTimes after the game.
“So, this is our focus now. FA Cup, we are going to the semi-finals, but it’s secondary. We are thinking of the league now,” he added.
