We’ve Worked On Our weaknesses; Medeama Captain Assures

The captain of the Medeama Sporting Club (SC), Baba Abdulai Musah says the team has worked on noticed defects and will capitalize on their strength to earn all three points in their game against Al Ahly today.

In a pre-match press conference on Thursday, February 23 the defender said the team is well prepared to face the defending Champions.

“We’ve seen some {of our} weaknesses and we have worked on that. Hopefully you will see some improvement in the squad.”

According to him, a plan has been devised to dominate and win the game.

“We are all ready and we know what to do on the field. We are guided by our coaches and technical team so we are just going to stay with the plan and hopefully we will get the points.”

Technical Director Evans Augustine Adotey indicated that the three points were crucial for their survival in the League and thereby their quest to earn all.

“We are ready for tomorrow,” he reiterated but added, “We are not going to underrate the opposition.”

The Ghanaian side will be scrambling for a hard-to-reach survival in the CAF Champions League when they take on Al Ahly at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi.
