Black Stars forward Ransford-Yeboah Konigsdorffer is delighted with his strong start to the season in the German Bundesliga II. The 22-year-old scored his third goal of the campaign in Hamburger’s 1-1 draw against Hertha Berlin in their second game of the season.
Konigsdorffer gave Hamburger an early lead, but they were unable to hold on as Jonjoe Kenny equalized for Hertha Berlin with four minutes remaining.
“We dominated the game in the first half, both on the ball and defensively. We were a bit more passive in the second, and maybe concentrated too much on holding on to that one-goal advantage,” Konigsdorffer commented after the match. “We’ve learnt a lesson from this and we need to do better next time. It’s disappointing that we couldn’t get over the line today, but four points is okay, even if we’d obviously rather have had six.”
The striker also expressed gratitude towards his manager for the trust placed in him to lead the attack. “I’m pleased with the faith the gaffer has put in me and want to pay it back with my performances. It’s great that I’m developing as a player through gaining more experience,” he concluded.
