According to the Coach, the 1-0 loss against Liberty Professionals in Dansoman was very painful and he was delighted avenging that loss.

“It was a very hard-fought match. It was very tough and we nearly lost getting to the end of the game after they took the lead but with resilience and perseverance, we were able to equalize and got the winner. I have to congratulate my boys for that hard-fought battle.

“We lost in Dansoman, so we wanted revenge of which we got but it was very tough especially considering our position. This win would be a big booster for them and a motivation to fight harder in our next match,’’ he said.

Legon Cities would travel to Sogakope to face WAFA in a week 25 encounter slated for the Red Bull Arena on Saturday.
