Assistant Coach of Kumasi Asante Kotoko Godwin Ablordey insists he is impressed with the performance of the players, despite the 1-0 defeat to Bechem United.
The Porcupine Warriors were beaten by the Hunters in a pulsating match day 28 of the Ghana Premier League.
Saddick Hafiz scored the only goal in the 90th minute to snatch all three points for Bechem United.
However, the defeat, according to assistant Coach of Kotoko did not reflect the performance of his players. Ablordey indicated the signs showed by his players were encouraging.
"Everything went well for us, don't mind the result. The boys gave their all but the ball refused to enter the net and such is football," Ablordey told reporters.
"In football you either win, loss or draw and today we tasted defeat but the manner in which we did is encouraging."
"I don't want to comment on the referee because it has become a trend of late in terms of bad officiating. I will rather shift focus on our next game which is against Berekum Chelsea."
Kumasi Asante Kotoko will next face Berekum Chelsea at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium and have qualified for the finals of the MTN FA Cup to be played in Tamale on October 29th against rivals Accra Hearts of Oak.
