The outcome against the defending champions Asante Kotoko did not satisfy Tamale City assistant coach Hamza Mohammed, he said.
On match day 11, on Wednesday afternoon at the Aliu Mahama Stadium in Tamale, Asante Kotoko and Tamale City tied 1-1.
Issah Nyaabila’s own goal for Kotoko in the 83rd minute broke the scoreless tie. Before Tamale City scored an equalizer, the Kumasi-based club was about to win all three points.
Babamu Ibrahim’s goal for Tamale City forced the game to end in a 1-1 tie three minutes after they had trailed.
After the game, Tamale City’s coach, Hamza Mohammed, expressed his disappointment with the outcome and vowed Tamale City will survive.
“I am very satisfied with my boys but I am not satisfied with the points. It is obvious it is not the true reflection of the game I think we should have won this game hands down. But football being what it is we had our chances but we could not finish we were punished by the fast break and an own goal,” he said after the game.
“The boys showed character within three minutes we equalized, showing more incursions but unfortunately, we didn’t get the winner. We will take it like that and move on I am very positive we will stay afloat though the results have not been showing,”
“We have so many positives in this game this one and the last one we will tap on it definitely our next match will be against Kumasi King Faisal. We will take the positive and make sure we will go and get three maximum points in Kumasi,”
