Medeama players
Medeama coach Tom Strand has challenged his players to step up to deliver a great performance to beat Asante Kotoko in the MTN FA Cup finals in the absence of their leading striker Nathaniel Asamoah.
The 25-year-old hitman is currently away in Morocco completing a transfer move to Raja Casablanca.
Asamoah has been in inspired form for Medeama this season where he is currently the leading scorer in the Ghanaian top flight with 18 goals.
But the Yellow and Mauves will be without their in-form striker for the finals of the MTN FA Cup against Kotoko on Sunday.
Coach Tom Strand is however urging his players to step up to the plate to clinch the trophy in the absence of their lead striker.
“Nathaniel Asamoah is in Morocco and will be unable to play in this game,” he said.
“We will miss him but I hope the rest of the players step up to do the job in his absence.”
Medeama will be hoping for a repeat of the result from the finals of the MTN FA Cup two seasons ago where they beat Asante Kotoko in Accra to clinch the title.
