Asante Kotoko coach David Duncan admits his team struggled from the onset in their thrilling 2-2 draw with New Edubiase on Sunday.

The champions fought from an early setback to race into a 2-1 lead by halftime.

Kotoko pretty much controlled the game thereafter and looked certain to earn the maximum points.

But a late Aminu Dramani strike denied them the win – leaving them with only a share of the spoils.

And coach Duncan in his post match analysis concedes his team’s start to the game wasn’t the best.

“We were a bit jaded from the blocks, I think the coordination at the back wasn’t that efficient and Edubiase ceased the opportunity and took advantage to get the opening goal,” Duncan said.

"But then we got better as the game wore on and we got a deserved equalizer and then went ahead before the break."
