Asante Kotoko defender, Samba O’Neil, has reiterated his side’s desire to beat arch rivals Accra Hearts of Oak on Sunday.
The two teams meet at the Baba Yara Stadium on Sunday for the first time this season, posing identical records, with Hearts just a point above Kotoko.
Asante Kotoko only ended their abysmal run of four successive defeats with an impressive 2-0 win at Aduana Stars last time out, and Samba is keen on continuing.
“We’re preparing for the game with seriousness. It’s the biggest game on our calendar and we’re focused,” he said.
“There’s no pressure on us per se. Pressure in football is normal but ours is more of positivity. I just want to win, regardless of the opponent, so this game isn’t different.”
Asante Kotoko and Hearts of Oak occupy 7th and 6th place on the Ghana Premier League table respectively.
