The Burkinabe international scored the second goal for the Porcupines as they defeated the Cape Coast side 2-0. Goals from Emmanuel Gyamfi and Songne Yacouba either side of the half at the Robert Mensah Stadium ensured the Porcupines were the victors on the day.

Dwarfs were proving a hard nut to crack for Kotoko until Emmanuel Gyamfi strike in the 37th minutes after latching onto a pass from Collins Ameyaw broke the deadlock as the first half ended 1-0.

The Porcupine Warriors continued from were they left off as Songne Yacouba put the icing on the cake in the 68th minute.

Kotoko will next travel to Takoradi for another game against Skyy FC. They last Saturday thrashed lower-tier side Sampdoria 6-0 at the Adako Jachie training complex.
