The club’s director for communication, Kofi Owusu in an interview with sportscrusader.com conceded Ashgold could have won by more goals had the league been ongoing.
He said, “We would have been sharper and much ready for the MO Bejaia had the league been in session but the opening game against Medeama SC is just the perfect match before we travel to Algeria for the second leg. ”
