Asante Kotoko coach Charles Akonnor said he was pleased with his victory after a 2-1 victory in a tough match against Zambian Zesco United in Kumasi.

Kwame Bonsu and Emmanuel Gyamfi's goals in the first period helped the Porcupine Warriors record their first group stage victory in the Caf Confederation Cup on Wednesday.

This victory puts Kotoko back on the road to qualifying for the knockout stages after two games. They occupy the third position in Group C with the same points as their opponents.

"We were aware of the strength of the opponent. They are very, very dangerous so it's important that we do not give them a break, "said the former Black Stars captain.

"From the beginning of the game, we did our best to be compact and not to allow them to attack.

"However, they managed to attack us in so many ways, which was very, very dangerous, but we did very well.

"We were waiting for our scoring opportunities and we reached our goal in just a few minutes. We had to dunk and attack. At the end of the day, we had the victory and we are very happy. "

Kotoko's next match is an away match against Zambia's Nkana FC.
