Asante Kotoko assistant coach, David Ocloo, has expressed confidence that the team will bounce back from their recent struggles and secure a victory when they take on FC Samartex 1996 this weekend.
The Porcupine Warriors suffered a disappointing 2-0 defeat against Dreams FC in their last match, with Sylvester Simba and Derrick Agyei finding the back of the net for the home side. This result marked only their second win in the last nine games of the ongoing 2023/24 Ghana Premier League season, leaving them in the 11th position with 33 points under the leadership of Prosper Narteh Ogum.
Following the loss, Ocloo emphasized the team’s determination to return to winning ways as they prepare to face the league leaders at the Baba Yara Stadium in Matchday 27. “We will go back to Baba Yara, that’s our home,” he stated in an interview with StarTimes. “If we want to turn things around, it should be at Baba Yara on Sunday against Samartex,” he added.
The upcoming clash is highly anticipated and is set to kick off at 15:00 GMT on Sunday. As Asante Kotoko aims to reignite their winning form, fans can expect an exciting and competitive match as they look to secure a crucial victory in the Ghana Premier League.
