Kwame Opoku knew his team would win the MTN FA Cup before the match started. The Asante Kotoko striker felt certain about victory against Golden Kick FC at the University of Ghana Sports Stadium last June. He scored two goals that day and helped his club beat the lower division team 2-1. The Porcupine Warriors grabbed their tenth FA Cup trophy thanks to his performance. Opoku never worried about missing his penalty kick because he believed his team would win anyway.
The 26-year-old forward came back to Kotoko during the middle of the 2024/25 season. He made a huge difference right away with nine goals and two assists across 17 games. His strong play caught the attention of national team coaches who called him up for the Black Stars. Opoku played for Ghana during the Unity Cup tournament. His excellent form earned him another chance to represent his country after being away from the squad.
The striker wants to keep playing well as Kotoko prepares for their next big challenge. The team will compete against other African clubs during the 2025/26 CAF Confederation Cup. Opoku hopes his scoring touch continues throughout the continental competition. His confidence from the FA Cup victory should help him face tougher opponents. The forward believes his team can achieve more success with the same winning attitude.
