Asante Kotoko trainer, C. K Akonnor says he is unhappy with his players despite their 2-0 win over Medeama Sporting Club in the ongoing Normalisation Committee Special Competition at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on Sunday.

The Porcupine Warriors whipped the Tarkwa-based side to move to the top in Zone B of the Tier 1 league.

Songne Yacouba and Abdul Fatawu Shafiu scored two goals in the second half for the home side.

But Kotoko’s coach C.K Akonnor insisted that they “did not play too well” despite their win.

“We struggled to pass the ball when we’re in possession. But we looked sharper upfront and we delivered,” C.K Akonnor said after the win.

“I was happy with the fact that Yacouba (Songne) came in and brought some freshness into the game. He really did very well.”

“Honestly, we didn’t play too well but we were efficient up front. I’m glad we were able to convert the chances we had,” he ended.

The Porcupine Warriors will travel to Aduana Stars in the last round to determine their qualification in the next stage of the competition.
