The kitchen was too hot for Fabio Gama - Dwarfs coach praises players despite Kotoko defeat

Ebusua Dwarfs head coach, Ernest Thompson Quartey, has praised his side’s defensive prowess despite losing 1-0 to Asante Kotoko.

The Mysterious club hosted the Porcupine Warriors at the Cape Coast Stadium in an outstanding game in the ongoing Ghana Premier League.

Dwarfs were undone by a second-half strike from Christopher Nettey, which handed all three points to the Porcupine Warriors.

“I told you before the game, that we were going to neutralize some of their players, and it came on perfectly,” Thompson said after the game.

"Kwame Opoku was virtually a passenger in the game. Fabio Gama was kicked out of the game because the kitchen was too hot for him.

“I told them that will happen, but they had a chance and they took it.

“But we will come back stronger against WAFA over the weekend,” he added.

Dwarfs are 11th on the Ghana Premier League table.
