Head coach of Asante Kotoko, Seydou Zerbo has revealed his displeasure at the performance of his Ugandan striker Steven Mukwala.

The Ugandan striker was profligate as he wasted a lot of chances that came his way in the game as Kotoko drew 1-1 with Hearts of Oak.

Asante Kotoko after their CAF Champions League elimination against RC Kadiogo needed to appease their supporters with a morale-boosting win but they were held by Hearts of Oak.

The reds were very dominant in the first half and should have been out of sight but Ugandan striker Steven Mukwala and Isaac Oppong wasted decent chances with the Ugandan the worst culprit.

Kotoko took the lead after Yussif Mubarik turned home a rebound from a free kick in the 57th minute before Hearts stole a draw at the death with a header from Caleb Amankwaah in the 87th minute.

"We were all disappointed with our performance last week. We went to right our wrongs and played well but not happy for not getting all three points.

"With Mukwala, I wouldn't say I'm ok. He is our leading scorer and his duty is to score. I will not say I'm ok but we will go back to figure out what went wrong and work towards it."

"We are building a new team with new signings, so I'm edging the supporters to be calm and I hope with time, they will adapt to the Kotoko philosophy and playing in front of the huge crowd, and will get back on track."

Asante Kotoko will host Nsoatreman FC in one of their outstanding fixtures on Wednesday, September 28, 2022.
