Medeama head coach Ibrahim Tanko
Medeama head coach Ibrahim Tanko expressed concerns about his team’s wastefulness despite their victory over Holy Stars in the Ghana Premier League on Tuesday, April 1, 2025.
The former Black Meteors coach believes his side should have scored more than the two goals they managed in the game.
Despite lamenting the missed chances, he commended his team for their composure in staging a comeback after conceding first in the 2-1 win.
“We had a lot of chances in the first half and should have scored at least two or three goals. But we kept our composure after [Holy Stars’] opening goal,” he said after the game.
“In the second half, we tried to score another, but unfortunately, the penalty was denied.”
Issah Yakubu gave the visitors the lead, but Medeama equalized through Kamaradini Mamudu, who scored on the stroke of halftime.
Derrick Fordjour secured the win in the dying moments for the Mauve and Yellows after a dominant second-half performance.
The victory has propelled Medeama into the top four, as they now sit fourth with 38 points after 24 games.
