Kumasi Asante Kotoko’s talented center back Ahmed Adams has played down the absence of his defensive partner ahead of Monday’s trip to the capital.
The commanding defender admitted missing the partnership of his team mate but remains confident the Reds will triumph without their injured colleague.
Richard Osei Agyemang was billed to team up with the imposing Adams for the top liner between Hearts of Oak and Kotoko before picking up an injury ahead of the trip.
Ahmed Adams, an ever present figure at the back for the embattled Reds however refused to bulge into any negative void that will be left by his crocked defensive partner when they head to Accra.
The former Berekum Chelsea defender rubbished any fear factor harboured by struggling side ahead of the most coveted domestic fixture on Ghanaian soil.
“The absence of Osei Agyemang will not affect us as a unit. Yes we will miss him but they are enough replacements for him in the squad capable of filling in for him”, Ahmed Adams told sports crusader exclusively.
The 23 year old added, ” We respect every single team in the league but we fear none. We are fully prepared for the game on Monday and Insha Allah, Victory will be ours at the end of the game”.
Kumasi Asante Kotoko have not lost a league fixture to Accra Hearts of Oak in Accra since 2010, winning this same fixture last season under the inspiration of Dauda Mohammed.
The record league champions returns to the capital on the backdrop of a 0-1 reverse at home to New Edubiase in match day 10.
