Accra, July 21, GNA- Coach Sulley Mohamed of Okwawu United has stated that his side would be going all out in their outstanding league match against Kumasi Asante Kotoko at the Accra Sports Stadium on Wednesday, in order to grab the maximum three points at stake.

Speaking in an interview with the GNA Sports, coach Mohamed said they are going to prepare well for the match since they cannot afford to lose again in the premiership adding that they would be going in for a win. He said though most of his players are young and inexperienced he is hopeful that they would live up to expectation on Wednesday, the day of the match.

The coach conceded that Kotoko is the strongest side in the premiership so far, but Okwahu are not ready to slip again since that would be disastrous for the team.

Commenting on last Saturday's lost against Accra Hearts of Oak in the ninth week league match, coach Mohamed said his players lost focus in the later stages of the game and this resulted in the last minute goal conceded by the team.

He attributed this to inexperience on the part of his players who he described as players having their maiden taste of the premiership. The coach was of the view that they would soon catch up with life in the premiership and ruled out any threat of relegation.

Coach Mohamed was however not happy with the situation where the present management is lacking support from supporters of the club.

"There seems to be division in the club because a section of supporters don't want the present management succeed," he said adding that there is the need for united front to move the club forward.
