Asante Kotoko trainer Mariano Bareto has admitted his outfit needs to work more on its defense to improve in that department.
The Portuguese coach in his first competitive game guided the Porcupine Warriors to beat Bechem United 4-0 at the Obuasi Len Clay stadium in an outstanding Ghana Premier League encounter on Wednesday evening.
Goals from Abdul Ganiyu, Fabio Gama, Andy Kumi Francis and new boy Michael Vinicius were enough for the Kumasi based club to pick all three points at stake.
Speaking after the game, he said he is completely happy with their performance and that wants the players to improve especially with the defense setup.
“They made good team today, there are many things that we have to improve and I know they are trying”
“Look, our best striker left and from the defense we have to improve little to be better, in the midfield Mudasiru is not completely fit and we have some problems in the team because we have about six players out before I come and some of them are key players,” he said.
“We win 4-0 and of course I should be happy but only today, tomorrow we start our work”
Asante Kotoko moves to third position on the table with 31 points and are two points behind leaders Great Olympics.
