It is often said players who play derbies for the first time crumble under the weight of pressure but this is not the case for Hearts of Oak’s Cosmos Dauda.
The former Mighty Jets attacker is brimming with confidence heading into this game after scoring three goals in the last two Hearts matches.
For him, pressure is what you bring upon yourself.
“There is no single pressure. Pressure is what you bring upon yourself we are positive and we believe in our training session,” he told Adom Sports.
“We have a good coach who psyches us in and out of the pitch.”
“I believe we are going in with a clear mind and hopefully we can come out with the three points.”
In addition to the confidence, Dauda was optimistic about scoring on Monday.
“I am positive about scoring. That’s my trademark. I have no option than to be on the scoresheet.”
Dauda is Hearts’ leading scorer in the league with four goals.
