The victory also lifts the Kumasi-based club above Hearts on the league table after matchday 13.

Asante Kotoko currently sits 6th on the table with 21 points and are just three points adrift of leaders Heart of Lions.

Ogum breathes a sigh of relief

The coach has been under pressure in recent times following a series of underwhelming results, which left the club winless in five straight games before their trip to Dormaa to face Aduana.

The turnaround began with a 2-0 win over the two-time champions before the victory over Hearts of Oak. The two wins ease the pressure on the Kotoko trainer.

“I instructed my striker Albert Amoah to take advantage of Hearts of Oak’s Kelvin Asibey’s over-complacency and that led to his late winner at the Baba Yara Stadium," he said as he narrated the secret behind the late winner during the post-match presser.
