Head coach of Ampem Darkoa Ladies, Joe Nana Adarkwa, has praised the efforts of his team following their win over ASFAR Club in the CAF Women's Champions League.
The Malta Guinness Ghana Women's Premier League champions came from a first-half deficit to secure a 2-1 win in San Pedro to kick off their maiden campaign in the competition with a well-deserved victory.
The Ghanaian side looked uncomfortable in the opening exchanges of the game but got the upper hand after conceding the first goal of the game.
They returned from recess and continued from where they left off until they snatched the victory with Adarkwa attributing their performance to hard work and determination.

"Everyone knew ASFAR are a very good side so I warned the girls to be cautious in the first half. But after reading the game and seeing that we could match them after opening up, that saw us play better in the second half," he told the media.
"The determination and the hard work of the girls was the reason we got the positive result."
Ampem Darkoa will be back in action on Thursday, November 9, when they face Malian side AS Mande in their second group game.
The Nana Mma are currently top of Group B after the victory while the other game between Hurricanes FCand AS Mande ended in a 1-1 stalemate.
