 Faisal
Happy With Lone Goal
20th Mar 2010
King Faisal beat
Kumasi Asante Kotoko 1-0 in the 23rd Week Glo Premier League
match played at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi on
Sunday.
Frank Acheampong scored the 12th minute goal in a defensive
blunder against the run of play, which sealed the win for
Faisal.
Kotoko started the match on a good note and nearly took the lead
in the first minute of the game but wasted chances. Though
Kotoko exerted continuous pressure on Faisal, who was playing at
home, lack of strikers up front caused Kotoko's defeat with
Samad Oppong, Edward Affum and Stephen Manu wasting chances upon
chances. Faisal took over in a counter in the 12th minute and
scored through Acheampong, who shot past Prince Amoako with the
defence of Kotoko broken with a perfect pass from Prince Arkoh.
Kotoko accepted the challenge and made series of attempts at
goal but they could not translate their set pieces to level up.
In the second session, Faisal nearly increased the tally in the
46th minute but Enoch Ebo Ando squandered the chance.
Asante Kotoko made two changes with Francis Akwaffo and Kabiru
Imoro coming on for Samad Oppong and Edward Affum in the 47th
and 66th minutes respectively.
This helped Kotoko greatly in the attack but Faisal, who had
packed its defence, was too strong to beat. Kotoko laid siege
incessantly putting the defence of Faisal under pressure, but
could not score, they nearly equalized in the 82nd minute but
Stephen Manu shot wide in a goal mouth melee.

sack some of the players. dey are waste in dis squad
Francis -
This defeat is painful especially to supporters but I was not
surprised. Anybody who knows the lifestyle of most Kotoko
players would begin to understand the way they perform on the
field. Theres nothing like discipline anymore. Most of them
engage in womanizing and alcoholism. Thatis why they lack
creativity, concentration and fitness. Most of them got tired
before getting to the gola area of King Fiasal hence to release
the ball for the needed rest they shot feebly or recklessly at
goal. They really don't care about the results and it impact on
the supporters. Kudos to King Fiasal. Am not a prophet of doom
but I can assure supporters that they must prepare for the
worse. Matches with Ashgold .Real Tamale, Wise, Liberty etc
would not yield any better results. My rating for this match is
two over ten. Kotoko players are really not fit for the job they
are doing. Supporters must visit drinking spots especially in
Tema and Kumasi for confirmation of this write up.

i think from management to the playing body everybody should be
sacked. The players don't care about the disappointments and
hurt we fans are going thru. how can u take alcohol and womanize
and still perform. The answer is never. I like paa kwesi but the
indiscipline level is too much .look at samuel affum. of hearts,
with hardwork and perseverance he has become a torn in the flesh
of teams including kotoko.

If management think some players don't deserve to wear the red
shirt, please show them the exit. You should always remember,
kotoko is 'WO KUM APEM A, APEM BEBA'. There are some players some
where who are yearning for the door to be opened for them.

If indiscipline is ruining the team then look at the coach again.
If he has lost the dressing room then he should not be there,
period. There are two best coaches in the business of club
football: Sir Alex Ferguson and 'Special' Jose Morihno. They have
acheived this by just one trademark: discipline in the team.
