Operations manager of West African Football Academy [WAFA], George Ofosuhene has reiterated that his side is not scared of playing Asante Kotoko.

The Academy Boys will host the Porcupine Warriors at the Sogakope Sports Complex on Sunday in the matchday 9 fixtures of the ongoing Ghana Premier League.

WAFA lost to Legon Cities in their matchday 8 at the Accra Sports Stadium.

However, ahead of the game, Ofosuhene beleives his side are poised for the game and are not scared to face the record Ghana Premier League winners.

"We are not afraid of Kotoko. The demise of our president is motivating us to beat them in his honour. Henri Wientjes does not have time and so there are matches he sometimes comes down to watch," Ofosuhene told Bryt FM.

"Matches between Kotoko, Hearts of Oak, and Ashanti Gold are games he loves to watch during matchdays.

“In fact, when he is around, the motivation is high and that propels us to beat any team. He gives a lot of incentives when the team wins, so, in his absence we have decided to win the game to honour him”

“We will play them squarely to win this game. Matches between us and Kotoko are not difficult. If we need the three points, we don’t care about the team we are playing.”

Kotoko, meanwhile, will want to make it two wins in a row following a 2-0 victory over Liberty Professionals.

Wafa are fourth on the league table, one point above Kotoko.
