Asante Kotoko head coach Maxwell Konadu says his team showed a sign of a good team following their 1-0 win over Eleven Wonders in the 2019/20 Ghana Premier league opener.

The Porcupine Warriors made a winning start to the new season with a slim victory at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on Sunday courtesy Justice Blay's powerful header in the 3rd minute of the game.

Speaking after the game, the former Black Stars deputy coach revealed the visitors were much stronger than Kotoko in the second half of the game, however his side showed signs to become a good team.

"The game was very difficult. We understand because it's the first match of the season. From last week, we planned what we wanted to play. Initially things went well but eventually we were not able to score more goals," Coach Maxwell Konadu told reporters after the game.

"I think Eleven Wonders came in much stronger in the second half than we did. It wasn't an easy match but it's a sign of a good team. On a bad but we still managed to pull a win. I think that's good on our side," he ended.

Asante Kotoko will face Lagon Cities in the match-day two of the on-going 2019/20 Ghana Premier League season.
