Defender Richard Yeboah has made it clear that Aduana FC are approaching their MTN FA Cup quarter-final clash with full focus and determination, insisting the team is ready to defeat Techiman Liberty Youth and secure a place in the last four.
The much-anticipated encounter is scheduled for Saturday, March 14 at the Ohene Ameyaw Park, with kickoff set for 3:00 pm.
Although Aduana FC head into the fixture as favourites, Yeboah has warned against complacency, stressing that the team is treating the Division One side with complete respect as they prepare for what could be a tricky knockout encounter.
Speaking in a pre-match interview with Aduana FC TV, the defender revealed that preparations within the camp have been intense and positive, with players fully aware of the importance of the fixture.
“The training is going very well. We can defeat Techiman Liberty,” Yeboah stated confidently.
The centre-back acknowledged the difference in league status between the two sides but quickly pointed out that cup competitions are notorious for surprises — something Aduana are determined to avoid.
“They are a Division One team, and we are a Premier League team, but we won’t underrate them,” he emphasized.
His comments highlight the cautious mindset within the Aduana camp as the team prepares for one of the most important matches of their season.
The MTN FA Cup has long been famous for producing dramatic upsets, where lower-division teams often rise to the occasion and challenge more established clubs.
For Techiman Liberty Youth, the quarter-final clash represents a huge opportunity to create history by knocking out a top-flight side and advancing to the semi-finals.
But Aduana FC have no intention of allowing that storyline to unfold.
The Dormaa-based club are one of Ghana’s most experienced sides when it comes to high-pressure matches, having previously enjoyed success in both domestic league and cup competitions.
That experience could prove crucial as they navigate the challenge posed by a motivated Liberty Youth team eager to prove themselves.
Yeboah believes the key to success will be discipline, concentration, and collective effort from every player on the pitch.
The defender also took the opportunity to call on Aduana supporters to turn out in large numbers and provide the energy the team needs to secure victory.
“We believe we can beat them and that is why we are appealing to the supporters to come and cheer us on,” Yeboah said.
The presence of passionate supporters has often been a major factor in Aduana’s performances, and the team will be hoping the stands at Ohene Ameyaw Park are filled with fans eager to push them toward the semi-finals.
For Yeboah and his teammates, the goal is simple: deliver a performance that rewards the faith of their supporters.
“God willing, on Saturday we will win the match for them,” the defender added.
The clash promises to be one of the most intriguing fixtures in the FA Cup quarter-final round.
On one side stands Aduana FC, a seasoned Premier League outfit with the quality and experience to challenge for the trophy.
On the other stands Techiman Liberty Youth, a determined Division One side dreaming of a giant-killing moment that could send shockwaves through the competition.
Cup football often thrives on such contrasts — the established power versus the ambitious challenger.
Yet for Aduana FC, the mission is clear: avoid complacency, respect the opponent, and execute their game plan.
A victory on Saturday would not only send them into the semi-finals but also strengthen their ambitions of lifting the FA Cup trophy at the end of the season.
As kickoff approaches, the stage is set for a dramatic encounter in Techiman.
And if Richard Yeboah’s confident words are anything to go by, Aduana FC are ready for the fight — determined to prove that experience and preparation will prevail when the whistle blows
