The Academy Boys were hosted at the Obuasi Len Clay by the Porcupine Warriors in the matchday 26 games.

The Porcupine Warriors took the lead on the 3rd minute with defender Abdul Ganiu scoring from a spot-kick.

In the dying minute of the first half, Justus Torsutse levelled his side up with a sumptuous header to end the game 1-1.

After sharing spoils with the Reds, Prosper believes his side were discipline against the home side.

“It was a game of end-to-end action and I think the intensity of the game was good especially from the side of my team," he said after the game.

“Even though we conceded an early goal in the first minute but we kept the tempo very high.

“Because of that, we were able to wear the Kotoko off in the first leading to the equalizer.

“In the second half we kept to our team structure and organization and we were able to hold Kotoko because we knew they were going to come at us and so we decided to sit back and let them play so that we catch them on the counter.

“And you will realize that we were able to catch them most of the time but the last past to the target player is sometimes incomplete.

“So on a whole, I think with respect to my game plan it worked," he added.

WAFA per the result lie 6th on the log with 39 points from 26 games.

Asante Kotoko are tied on 46 points as Hearts of Oak but have less goals than the 2000 CAF Champions League winners.
