At the Nana Agyemang Badu Park on Sunday, the MTN FA Cup champions fell to the two-time Premier League champions by a score of 1-0.
The Ogya boys earned all three points for the season with the game's lone goal from Bright Adjei.
Boadu expressed disappointment after the game, blaming their carelessness in front of goal for their failure to at least get a point against the Ogya boys. Boadu has now failed to win his first game for the second straight season.
Despite a rough start, he was quick to add that he is confident his club can contend for the Ghana Premier League championship.
It's terrible to lose a game like that. The boys did nicely, in my opinion. They created a lot of opportunities, but they blew them all. It's sad that they had the opportunity to score a goal because of the minor error, Boadu added.
Even if we lost the first game, he continued, "We are not out of it; we just need to go back and prepare very well so that we do well in the upcoming matches."
At the Accra Sports Stadium, Samuel Boadu and his team will play host to Great Olympics, a competitor from the same city.
