“I must say I was impressed because we gave him an assignment; because they play out from the back, the assignment we gave to him was that when the goalkeeper plays with one of the centre backs…he should just cut one angle off so that it makes (the) play predictable.”

Albert Amoah scored the winner over Accra Lions in the 48th minute.
