Asante Kotoko forward Steven Desse Mukwala has called on the club’s supporters to rally behind the team ahead of the highly-anticipated Super Clash against Hearts of Oak.
The Porcupine Warriors are set to face the Phobians at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on Sunday, May 26, during match week 31 of the Ghana Premier League.
Kotoko approaches this match after a 2-1 defeat to Berekum Chelsea in their last outing, a loss that snapped their three-game unbeaten run. Mukwala, who netted the opening goal in that game, increased his season total to 12 goals. Despite his effort, Kotoko conceded two goals and were defeated at the Golden City Park.
Speaking to fans ahead of what is often hailed as the biggest game in Ghanaian football, Mukwala stressed the crucial role of fan support during these challenging times.
“It has been a difficult season for us all, but I want to urge them [the fans], this is the right time for them to show us their support,” Mukwala told the club’s media team.
Currently, Asante Kotoko sits 10th on the league table, with Hearts of Oak in 12th place. Both teams are eager to climb the standings as the season draws to a close, with only four matches left.
The Porcupines aim to rebound against their fiercest rivals and end the season on a positive note.
Fans are expected to fill the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in large numbers to support their team in what promises to be an exhilarating and fiercely contested match.
