According to Boadu, who was asked if today’s game against made his team come out all gun blazing to play above their weight levels, he proudly suggested that even if he had named his second-string side they wouldn’t have crumbled at Kotoko’s feet in such a high profile game.
“This was not one of our best game, our best game of the first round was against Legon Cities, if we had used our junior team( Auroras) against them today, Kotoko can still not score us.” He told pressmen after the game.
The draw sees Kotoko open up a 7 point gap at the summit of the table and a 13 point gap adrift Hearts who settle for the 8th position on the log.
