Kassim Mingle Ocansey of Bechem United has stated that his squad may have won the Premier League if not for complacency.
The coach, who was named coach of the month in January 2023 during the season, stated that his players took things for granted, which contributed to their failure to capture the top spot.
The coach stated on Rainbow Sports that his players took things for granted and believed they could beat any team in the league.
“It was complacency. When complacency sets in, then it would affect the team. It became difficult for them. And when complacency sets in, it becomes difficult for them on the field,” he said.
According to him, his players bragged about beating every team but unfortunately, they could not live up to expectations and failed to lift the trophy after the season.
The coach during the season was declared the NASCO Coach of the Month award for January 2023.
The Bechem United Head Coach saw off fellow nominees Yaw Preko of Great Olympics and Baba Nuhu of Real Tamale United FC.
Coach Mingle won the award for his team’s brilliant performance which saw them win three matches, draw one and lose a game in January.
He received a 43-inch NASCO Television set from Electroland Ghana Limited.
