Asante Kotoko head coach Prosper Narteh Ogum reflected on his team\u2019s 2-1 loss to Legon Cities, describing it as \u201can exciting game of two halves.\u201d <\/p>\n
The Royals secured their first win of the season against the Porcupine Warriors in an intense match held at the University of Ghana Sports Stadium on Wednesday night, marking Kotoko\u2019s first defeat in the ongoing Ghana Premier League campaign.<\/p>\n
A visibly defensive Ogum kept his responses brief post-game but acknowledged the team\u2019s struggle, especially in the second half. \u201cIt happens all over the world. He who is down fears no fall,\u201d Ogum stated, adding, \u201cIt was an exciting game, a game of two halves.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s not the best way to lose, especially if you look at the way we played in the second half; it shouldn\u2019t have happened, but then it has. We just have to put ourselves together and move on.<\/p>\n
\u201dAsante Kotoko now prepares to face Heart of Lions in Obuasi on Sunday, while Legon Cities will host Young Apostles in Accra on Monday.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
