Aduana Stars head coach Kenichi Yatsuhashi believes that he will mastermind a victory over AS Vita in the CAF Confederation Cup Group stage match on Wednesday.

The Japanese tactician was recently appointed as the head coach of the Ghanaian Premier League champions following the sacking of local trainer Yusif Abubakar.

Yatsuhashi’s first competitive game will be against Democratic Republic Congo (DRC) giants AS Vita club in the CAF Confederations Cup Group A match in Dormaa Ahenkro, Ghana.

“We have less time, just one week for the game against Vita but the good thing is that I know this Aduana team well.

“I have played against them twice previously so I have a fair idea. I can build on it before we face Vita,” Yatsuhashi said in a press conference.

“We have to intensify our training sessions, and work extra hard and hopefully we can get good results and carry on from there.”

Aduana lost 1-0 to Ivorian giants ASEC Mimosa in their first Group A game in Abidjan, before drawing 2-2 with Moroccan side Raja Casablanca in Dormaa Ahenkro.

Yatsuhashi has also coached Ghanaian side Hearts of Oak and Nigerian club IfeanyiUbah FC.
