Medeama Sporting Club head coach, Evans Augustine Adotey, has slammed his team’s poor start against Accra Hearts of Oak Sporting Club and pinned the slow start as the main reason for Medeama’s loss.
The Tarkwa based side lost 1-3 to Hearts at the Accra Sports Stadium with Hearts forward Hamza Issah scoring a brace and Medeama conceding an own goal in the first half.
Issah, who was praised by Hearts head coach Martin Koopman, had to be replaced at half time due to stomach issues. (Click highlighted text to read full story)
Speaking after the loss, head coach of the defending Betpawa Premier League champions believes a better start would have turned the result around.
“I knew it wasn’t going to be easy for me and that exactly happen. I didn’t start the game well. (Conceding) three goals in the first half and then coming back and then holding on till the final whistle meant that if I had started the game well, the results wouldn’t have been this score line.”
Medeama ranks 11th in the 18 team league standings with three wins, a loss and three losses. The team plays Legon Cities on Sunday, November 5 at 15:00 GMT.
