Kumasi Asante Kotoko Sporting Club head coach, Dr. Prosper Narteh Ogum, has praised striker Steven Dese Mukwala for living up to expectation in The Porcupine Warriors win over archrival Accra Hearts of Oak.
Mukwala scored twice in Kotoko’s 2-0 win over Hearts at the Baba Yara Stadium to make it back to back wins for Kotoko in the Super 2 Clash.
The Uganda striker scored in the eighth minute after latching on to a long pass to slot the ball past Hearts goalkeeper Kwesi Nketia.
Mukwala scored his 14th goal of the season by shifting the ball on to his right foot on a counter-attack before slamming the ball into the bottom left side of the goal for Kotoko’s second goal.
Speaking in his post game presser, Dr. Ogum praised his player’s performance in the win that comes after Kotoko suffered a 2-1 loss to Berekum Chelsea.
“As I said before the game, I engaged him and I think he has lived up to the task and its good for us. I’m even short on words. I think Steve made it so beautiful.”
