Asante Kotoko coach Steve Pollack has vowed to win the 2017 MTN FA Cup against sworn-rivals Hearts of Oak.

The Englishman wants to give his all to save the club's campaign after failing to land the league title.

''I don't think I'm going to be a failure on Sunday. With the attitude of the players and at training, we'll go for a win,'' Pollack said a press conference on Wednesday in Kumasi.

''As coach, I'm happy to put them in a position to score but at the end of the day, you either know how to score or don't know how to.

''It hasn't been one of the best seasons but we're going to finish on a high and that means going all out to win [the FA Cup].

''Whether or not we're underdogs makes no difference to me. I'm here to innovate and motivate the players.

''The condition of the players is very good - physically and mentally. But we still have 3 or 4 more trainings before the final.''

Kotoko are chasing their ninth FA Cup trophy with their last in 2014 when they beat Inter Allies 2-1 at the Accra Sports Stadium.
