The Porcupine Warriors skipper has admitted his disappointment following their shocking elimination from the FA Cup but assures the supporters with the league title
Asante Kotoko captain Abdul Ganiu Ismail has pleaded with the club’s teeming supporters following the painful defeat to King Faisal in the round of 64 of the FA Cup on Wednesday at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium.
Kotoko are now out of the FA Cup and would have to challenge Aduana Stars, King Faisal, Bechem United and Hearts of Oak to the Premier League trophy or risk going trophyless for the second season on a row.
The defeat has raised a lot concerns about the team’s performance and tactical prowess of head coach Prosper Ogum Narteh who arrived at the club recently to replace Portuguese manager Mariano Baretto.
“We are not happy about our exit from the FA Cup,” Ganiu told his club media.
“We will work harder and keenly contest for the GPL trophy. Together We Build,” he added.
Kotoko, who sit second on the log, will travel to Dormaa Ahenkro on Saturday to battle with Aduana Stars who sit at the summit of the Premier League table in the top of the table clash.
