Kotoko midfielder Michael Anaba says coach Mas-ud Draman deserves all the plaudits he has received since their heavy win over Sony ela Nguema in the Champions League.

The Porcupine Warriors have virtually secured their passage to the next stage of the competition after a historic 7-0 win over their opponent at the Baba Yara stadium last Sunday.

The defending league champions produced a classy performance in front of their home fans and the national under-18 enforcer believes Draman’s tactical ingenuity accounted for the heavy win.

“It has been a privileged working under this coach (Draman). I tell you he’s been wonderful and I believe the sky will be the limit for him,” Anaba said

“He has done a lot in his short term and he will reap the result of his labour.

“He’s a fantastic coach and I’m really glad to work under him. He deserves lots of commendation”

Draman’s men now hold a major advantage ahead of the return leg fixed for the weekend of 1-3 March.
