"First of all, I would like to thank the whole playing body for their performance. It wasn't easy. We had a terrible week after the draw at home in Kumasi," he said

"Everybody was disappointed with our performance .But the performance the boys showed today is one f the best I have seen in recent times.

'We kept our composure, everybody was more focused on the game and it was different game altogether.

"Personally, I am very happy although I didn't play, I had to join the guys and support them and at the end of the day, we won.

"I would like to thank everybody, the staff, those who were behind the team through the struggles. I am very happy for this victory."
