Ebusua Dwarfs defeat to Dreams FC disappointing – Stephen Aidoo

Ebusua Dwarfs Ebusua Dwarfs

Skipper of Ebusua Dwarfs, Stephen Aidoo says the team is disappointed to start the new Ghana Premier league season with a defeat at home.

Dreams Football Club inflicted a 1-0 painful defeat on the ‘Abontobonto’ boys at the Robert Mensah stadium on Match Week One of the Ghana Premier league 2015/16 season.

And the skipper of the team, Stephen Aidoo says the result is a disappointing one, but he is optimistic they will respond to the setback against New Edubiase on Sunday in Obuasi.

“The premier league is a very difficult competition to play in and we have to wake up after this loss,” Stephen Aidoo said in a post-match press conference.

“We knew the game was going to be tough, but we were optimistic of winning, but unfortunately, we couldn’t and that’s very disappointing.” He said.

Ebusua Dwarfs has an outstanding record when it comes to home matches on Match Week One, losing only one match since 1999. With the jinx broken, fans expectations may be as low as the belly of a snake but Stephen Aidoo is not perturbed.

“It is the mindset of the people… football is a game on its own. It doesn’t follow any logic; anything is possible.

“We can go to Obuasi and beat New Edubiase. First matches are always jittery and we expect to grow confident sooner and win matches.” He noted.
