Medeama SC recorded an emphatic victory over Horoya AC In the CAF Champions League preliminary playoffs qualifiers at home.
With the Yellow and Mauve guys grinding a 3-1 victory over Horoya AC yesterday, head coach of the club Evans Adotey Revealed his guys were under pressure and managed to grab a win for themselves.
“We shouldn’t create the impression that we have beaten Horoya AC 3-1 so they are a weak side, they are a very good side. Honestly speaking if I compare Horoya AC to Remo Stars, Remo Stars came in physically, they were running, pushing, and challenging”- he said.
He went on to say, “Whatever, the physical ability was there unlike this team but we could see this team was not too much technical but you could see they were able to put passes together, they could circulate, switch the ball from one end to the other, you could see even in the last 15 minutes we were desperate although.”- he added.
Adotey acknowledged that Medeama was under pressure during the game, especially from Horoya AC’s counter-attacks. However, he praised his team for taking their chances in the match, contrasting it with their previous game against Remo Stars where they struggled to create opportunities.
Medeama will now travel to Conakry with the task of defending well to come out unscathed. They have a two-goal margin to protect and aim to make history by reaching the CAF Champions League group stage for the first time.
