“I was very excited, especially when I grabbed this hat-trick which happens to be my first in my football career and I am promising my fans more goals before the season comes to an end,” he added.
Asked whether he was worried by the threat from Aduana Stars striker, Yahaya Mohammed, who has 12 goals to his credit, Blessing declared that his attention was only centred on helping his team to win through his goals.
He, however, praised his teammates and the Liberty technical team headed by George Lamptey for working tireless to return the club back to winning ways.
