ââ¬ÅWe are going to sell a good game to the fans and I can assure you the players are ready for the big game against our friends from Kumasi,â⬠Hearts rep, Neil Armstrong told the press conference.
ââ¬ÅKotoko is a more than worthy opponent but on Saturday I believe our players will do us all proud by beating them comprehensively.ââ¬
Jerry Asare, a Kotoko director responded: ââ¬ÅThis is a very good exercise ahead of the league and therefore a lot of premium would not be placed on the result,ââ¬
ââ¬ÅBoth clubs say they are doing rebuilding, and therefore at the end of the day it is peace we all want to achieve while raising funds for a good course.ââ¬
The two sides go into Saturdayââ¬â¢s game haven played out a highly entertaining one all draw in Kumasi a week ago.
