Nabil Kouke kept his impressive away record intact after impressive 1-1 draw Kumasi Asante Kotoko.

The Sudanese giants were 6 minutes away from taking all the maximum three points after Waleed Bakheet gave them the lead in 33rd minutes, only for Songne Yacouba to snatched a late equalizer for the home side.

Speaking to the media after the game, the Tunisian gaffer hailed the performance of his team and pointed out the reason why they couldn’t hold on to their lead.

“Coming here, we knew Kotoko is a big team and have a great team too. We came here to win and qualify today, but that is football.

“Sometimes in football one thing can decide the game. Like the goal they scored. Small things can make a difference in this kind of games.

When asked if the Songne Yacouba goal was offside, he said, “I can’t say whether it was an offside or not. I didn’t concentrate on that.”
