Asante Kotoko’s head coach, Dr. Prosper Narteh Ogum, expressed confidence in his team’s performance following their 1-1 draw with Basake Holy Stars at Ayinase.
According to Dr. Ogum, Kotoko had the edge throughout the match and created opportunities to win, despite the result breaking their impressive three-game winning streak. This streak had included tight 1-0 victories, one of which came against the reigning Ghana Premier League champions, FC Samartex.
In a post-match interview, Dr. Ogum emphasized Kotoko’s dominance in midfield, stating, “We had control over the midfield and even had a higher probability of scoring again in the second half… so I don’t think we lost the middle of the park.” His statement reflects his belief that Kotoko’s midfield played a key role and could have led to more goals.
The draw still leaves Kotoko in a favorable position, currently holding second place in the league standings. They will aim to get back on a winning track in their upcoming game against Legon Cities, scheduled for Wednesday, October 30, at the University of Ghana Stadium.
This fixture is an important one for Kotoko, as they seek to regain their momentum and continue their push for the league title. The team and its supporters are hopeful that the Porcupine Warriors can capitalize on this match to move closer to the top of the standings.
As they prepare for the upcoming game, fans eagerly await to see if Kotoko can return to winning form. With Dr. Ogum’s strategic approach and confidence in his team’s abilities, Kotoko is expected to approach the match with determination.
The Porcupine Warriors are poised to make a statement, and supporters are optimistic about their potential for a strong finish this season. All eyes will be on Kotoko as they look to demonstrate resilience and continue their pursuit of the league title.
