Samartex head coach Nurudeen Amadu says they are shifting their focus from Monday’s 2023/24 Ghana Premier League week 19 defeat to Nations FC to the games ahead.
The Timber Giants’ unbeaten streak at home came to an abrupt end as Nafiu Sulemana sealed a 1-0 victory for the visitors at the Nsenkyire Sports Complex.
“Luck evaded us, and in games like this, it’s crucial,” expressed Amadu. “Nothing seemed to work for us in terms of conversion, despite creating numerous chances. To hit the post on more than three occasions reflects our lack of fortune today.”
Despite the setback, Amadu emphasized the importance of focusing on the future. “I will not dwell on the defeat; our attention should be on what lies ahead. While it’s painful to experience our first home loss this season, we must move forward.”
Currently, Samartex maintains their position atop the league standings with 35 points, while Nations FC climbs to the fourth spot with 30 points and a game in hand.
