Liberty Professionals’ Season Well On Course - George Lamptey

Liberty Professionals coach, George Lamptey says their season is on course as they seek to fulfill their ambition of finishing in the top four at the end of this season.


The ‘Scientific Soccer’ lads are fourth on the Ghana Premier League (GPL) log with 10 points from the six games they have played, and, are looking good on their promise.


Last Sunday, they thumped defending champions, AshantiGold SC 5-1 at their Dansoman base to record their third home win of the campaign.


And this Coach Lamptey believes is a good sign of the efforts they have put into the team as they brace up for the reminder of the campaign.


“The win over AshantiGold was a good one for us as we prepared very well for this one knowing the caliber of opposition we were going to face ahead of the game,” Coach Lamptey said.


The former Ghana international adds that they should not be taken for a ride in this season’s competition as they have what it takes to go all the way and win it.


“We prepared very well for this competition and I believe our efforts will yield positive results as the season wore on,” Coach Lamptey said.


He takes his side to Kumasi to confront embattled Asante Kotoko at the Baba Yara Stadium in their next GPL game, and, is confident of producing a good result.







“The next game is equally important for us, and, we are not treating it lightly, we will prepare adequately well for it knowing we can get a good result with our efforts,’ he concluded.
