Scoring is my hallmark - Prince Opoku

The forward, whose brace over the weekend helped in condemning the Accra-based giants club, says hitting the back of the net remains his traits as an arrowhead

Medeama Sporting Club frontman Prince Opoku has said that scoring goals against his opponents has been his hallmark following his brace against Hearts of Oak in matchday 2 of the Ghana Premier League on Sunday.

The former New Edubiase forward was at his usual best with his goal scoring exploits when his side condemned the Phobians to the relegation zone having battered them by 3-0 at the Akoon Park in Tarkwa.

Opoku's first half brace coupled with Nana Kofi Babel's second half goal were enough to put the former FA Cup champions on top of the league table with a back-to-back victory for the ongoing top-flight.

However, the Black Stars B arrowhead is optimistic scoring for his outfit in their game matches will become routine as he looks forward to helping them clinch the ultimate at the end of the current league contest.

"I will challenge them [Medeama] since they already know me and talking about my capabilities. At least we have faced-off against each other with the local Black Stars and so they really know me very well," Opoku told DS Sports whiles revealing his targets for the Tarkwa-based outfit this term.

"I am throwing a challenge to them that in every game match, l have to score because that is my hallmark; putting the ball at the back of my opponents nets for them to emerge victorious."

He added on his lust for trophies, " Again, I have a strong lust for trophies. When we went to Senegal with the local Black Stars and failed to win the trophy, it really, really hurt me a lot for I had wanted to win an international trophy. Winning other trophies on the local scene say the Ghana Premier League and others are going to be great achievement and l want to win them with Medeama."

Medeama next face Liberty professional in matchday 3 of the ongoing 2019/20 Ghana Premier League season.
