Kotoko mistake made Hearts of Oak to shine

Head coach of Kumasi Asante Kotoko, Mariano Baretto has attributed the win of Accra Hearts of Oak out of the Super Clash played last Sunday to a mistake committed by his side.

In an interview after the match, Baretto pointed out how his side failed to get something from the game.

“We made one mistake during the entire match. We forgot to mark in midfield and we conceded the goal but we had chances too. However, we failed to take them and without goals, you cannot win a match. We have to accept the result and congratulate Hearts of Oak.

“But I have to say a word about my players. They fought hard and they gave it everything but we could not win. There are still three matches left but of course, things are more difficult now. The rest of the campaign is now dependent on Hearts of Oak and what they do in their matches.”

He added, “But I award (praise) my players. They fought, they made everything. In the end we have to wait till the end of the league.”
