Asante Kotoko trio, Justice Blay, Enock Morrison and Steven Mukwala have been named in Laryea Kingston’s Team of the Week for Matchday 31 of the Ghana Premier League after a stellar performance against rivals Accra Hearts of Oak on Sunday.

Another key performer for the Warriors is Steven Mukwala who scored a brace to take his season tally to 14 goals.
Also in the team of week are, Bibiani Gold Stars kingpin Alex Aso, Yussif Chibsah of Aduana FC, Shawkan Mohammed of Accra Lions and the evergreen Gladson Awako who masterminded Accra Great Olympics’ 3-2 win over Berekum Chelsea at the Accra Sports Stadium.
Accra Lions shot stopper Andrews Owusu was named as the goalkeeper of the week. Fatawu Sulemana (Medeama SC), Ebenezer Abban (Heart of Lions) and Rasheed Alhassan complete the list of players in the Team of the Week for Matchday 31 .
