FA Cup final a great achievement for Golden Kick – Parker Hanson

-

Golden Kick FC head coach Fiifi Parker Hanson has described his team’s run to the FA Cup final as a major achievement, despite falling short in the decider.

The lower-division side, widely praised for their impressive style of play, narrowly lost 2-1 to Asante Kotoko in Sunday’s final at the University of Ghana Sports Stadium.

Speaking after the match, Parker Hanson expressed pride in his team’s journey.

“Playing in the final of the FA Cup has been a great value and a great achievement for the team,” he told Asempa FM’s Sports Nite Show.

He also revealed that their preparations were entirely inward-focused, with no attention paid to their opponents’ tactics.

“Our focus was not on Asante Kotoko but on ourselves. We did not even watch their matches during preparation for the final.”

Asante Kotoko’s victory sees them crowned FA Cup champions and secures their qualification for the 2025/26 CAF Confederation Cup.
