Bechem United coach Kassim Mingle blames his goalkeeper for Kotoko defeat

In the BetPawa Premier League match held on Wednesday at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium, Bechem United suffered a 1-0 defeat to Asante Kotoko, with Enock Morrison’s goal in the 21st minute proving to be the difference.

Coach Kassim Mingle’s team had secured a victory over Great Olympics in their previous outing and was aiming to close the gap on Aduana Stars by securing another win against Kotoko. However, the Hunters dropped from the second to the third position in the league table, as Morrison’s goal helped the reigning champions earn a crucial victory.

The away team’s head coach acknowledged that his players did not begin the game well but held goalkeeper Aziz Haruna Dari accountable for the 1-0 loss.

“I’m disappointed. Initially, we were not playing our normal game when the match started untill we conceded before we started playing our normal game. Is unfortunate we conceded that early goal.

“It was a mistake from the goalkeeper. At where he was, they shouldn’t have scored him at the first pole. It has happened so we will go home and correct our mistakes,” Coach Kassim Mingle stated in an interview with StarTimes.
