Fans were understandably frustrated, expressing their disappointment over the outcome against a struggling opponent. However, Ogum addressed the situation with a perspective grounded in the realities of football, stating, “It happens all over the world. He who is down fears no fall. It was an exciting game, a game of two halves.” His comments reflect a broader understanding that unexpected results can occur in sports, emphasizing that even top teams can stumble against lower-ranked competitors.
Ogum acknowledged that while the loss was not ideal, particularly considering the performance of his team in the second half, it was a moment to regroup and move forward. “It is not the best way to lose, especially if you look at the way we played in the second half; it shouldn’t have happened, but it has. We just have to put ourselves together and move on,” he said.
Currently, Asante Kotoko sits in second place in the league with 15 points and will be looking to bounce back in their upcoming match against Heart of Lions in Obuasi on Sunday. Meanwhile, Legon Cities will aim to build on their surprising victory as they prepare to face Young Apostles in Accra the following day. As the season progresses, both teams will be keen to secure their positions and improve their performances in the competitive Ghana Premier League.
Do you think the Asante Kotoko coach needs more time just like Arsenal coach Arsene ?
