Asante Kotoko assistant coach Akakpo Patron insists the team won't change it style despite injuries to two of their key players.

Emmanuel Gyamfi joined Richard Senanu and Maxwell Baako on the sidelines after limping off in Sunday's 3-0 victory over Nkana FC in Kumasi in the CAF Confederations Cup.

The winger scored Kotoko's second goal and immediately walked off in pains.

"Richard Senanu and Gyamfi have given their all to the team but their absent won’t really change our strategy going into the Al Hilal game. We will know the fitness level of Gyamfi today," Patron told Happy FM.

Martin Antwi replaced Maxwell Baako on Sunday in the starting line up and he impressed with Patron praising the former Inter Allies player.

"Martin Antwi did well yesterday because he started with us but he was out for sometime. Scoring will boost up his confidence level to the next game," he said.

"Our next game won’t be an easy one because we played them before but we must win at all cost. We have to get a very convincing win to top the group.''
