“We had intensive training yesterday so for me the result is okay .

“Well done to Glow- lamp they showed some energy and they have a young squad. It’s a good exercise, we made a lot of changes just to get some minutes for each “player.

“The players have to step up because Hearts of oak is not a small club, the expectations, demand and pressure is there so you need to adopt. I believe in the players so that’s why they are here”
