The Porcupine Warriors begun their Africa campaign on a winning note after inflicting a 1-0 win over Congolese side CARA Brazzaville courtesy a late penalty goal by striker Yakubu Mohammed.
Despite dominating the match, MTN FA Cup holder’s squandered three penalties before converting the very last one that won them the day.
And during an interview with Kumasi-based Oyerepa FM, Coach Appiah believes the Porcupine Warriors will face difficulty in making it past the first stage of the competition but was quick to indicate that they could defy all odds and qualify in Congo should they work on their finishing.
“With this score line it will be difficult for Kotoko to qualify but it’s possible,” the 57-year-old trainer told Oyerepa FM.
“We’ll have to pray for them, for five penalties in a game with only one scoring, it’s the first time I’m experiencing something like this.”
