Asante Kotoko goalkeeper Felix Annan is confident their Burkinabe forward Sogne Yacouba will return to goal scoring soon after a barren run in the CAF Confederations Cup.

The Porcupine Warriors host Zesco United on Wednesday in the second group game but the lethal attacker is yet to make a mark in the competition.

Despite the pressure of getting his first goal weighing on him, goalkeeper and vice captain of the club Felix Annan has praised his total input to the club and believes he will discover his goal scoring boots soon.

“Even though Yacouba has not scored, his impact in the game has been superb; he leads the team in attack and puts fear in the opponent. In all, we want to win and he helps us so we have no problem with him," Annan told Graphic Sports.

"We the players always talk to him about it; we have told him to forget about it and play his game. He should not be worried at all, when the chance comes he will score,” he asserted.
