Justice Blay praised by boss Prosper Narteh Ogum after 1-0 win over King Faisal

Kumasi Asante Kotoko coach, Prosper Narteh, has lauded utility player, Justice Blay for his superlative display in their 1-0 win over King Faisal on Matchday 23 at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on Sunday.

Prosper Narteh’s side scored in the first half to maintain  their league lead by beating their nervy regional rivals.

A direct free-kick scored by Imoro Ibrahim ensured Kotoko extend their lead on the league log to 10 points under Prosper Narteh.

“It is a clear indication that Blay is a multi functional player; he can play in several positions as a centre back, as a defensive midfielder and as offensive midfielder.

“So he gives me options on the field like that of Mudasiru and Sherif Mohammed, these players also give me options in the middle of the pitch,” Narteh stated on StarTimes after the game.

“I am happy for him. He has not had a good time since joining us, probably coming in late and he is yet to pick it to the game model, but then today playing him as a centre back having the confidence in him and him proving himself that he is capable of doing it, I am happy for him and I am happy for my team, Asante Kotoko too.”
