Ebusua Dwarfs striker Richard Gakpe says the 6-1 thrashing handed to Real Tamale United is only a product of the team’s hard work in recent weeks.

The Cape Coast side thumped the bottom club destined for relegation in Sunday’s Premier League game.

Dwarfs surrendered a late goal to lose 2-1 to Asante Kotoko last weekend. This, the striker says inspired the team to work harder to pick up subsequent wins of which the 6-1 mauling is only a by-product.

“The 6-1 was expected, for us the players we are not surprised at all,” he said. “We should have actually beaten Kotoko last week but for a momentary loss of concentration.

“We know our team and players are very good and therefore it was only a matter of time for such a huge score line to come by.

“RTU is not that bad but we were that good and the 6-1 is only a manifestation of our hard work in recent times,” he added.

Dwarfs move up to fourth in the Ghanaian top flight and will next travel to take on Berekum Chelsea in the midweek game.
