In an interview with Joe Debrah on Wamputu Sports on Happy 98.9FM Kassim Mingle indicated that his side will embark on a normal game preparation, which will help offload pressure on the team and make them relax in a quest to win.
“We will approach the game normally, like all the games we have played. We don’t want to do any extraordinary preparation that will put pressure on the players. Just a normal preparation so that everybody will relax,” Kassim Mingle told Joe Debrah.
Mingle added, “We are going into the game for the ultimate, and the better side with luck on his side will win the game. As it stands, we are in second place and on track to meet our goal.”
