Utrecht division one winger Baba Mubara[ messi] says he and his team mates must improve if it wants to catch Guan United and RTU in the race for places to the middle league, on the back of a 1-1draw with Bolga All Stars on Sunday.

The white and reds' 1-1 draw with the Bolga side gave Utrecht the incentive of being able to move to within five points of coach Dawuoo,s  side at the summit with a draw doing into the last three games of the season.

Utrecht duly delivered, but it was not as comfortable as the scoreline suggested as Razak Patrict put the Tamale based side1-0 ahead, before controversial penalty gifted the upper east region side a point.

Although Utrecht squandered a host of chances, it did eventually create some breathing space as experienced duo Abdulai Alhassan and Vincent Deyi tormented their opponent’s defense in the final 10 minutes, and Mubarak admitted that his side was nowhere near its best.

"It was not our best game, but we're a little closer to the leaders," the attacking winger told tufaghanafc.com.

"We need to stop players from scoring in aerial duels, but we're not very tall. It's not our strong point."

Utrecht will be back onto the field on Sunday when they entertain city rivals Dynamos FC at the TUFA complex.
