At Ackoon Park, Kumasi Asante Kotoko, led by Nana Yaw Amponsah, suffered their first Premier League defeat.
Kotoko has remained undefeated against Karela United in Aiyinase at Ackoon Park since Nana Yaw Amponsah became Chief Executive Officer (CEO) under a Board of Directors led by Dr. Kwame Kyei in June 2020.
Last Thursday, Kotoko fell to Karela United by a score of one to zero, marking Seydou Zerbo’s team’s fifth away league game without a victory.
Nana Yaw Amponsah, the chief executive officer of Asante Kotoko, has launched an attack over his team’s suffering from poor officiating this season, alleging that there is a deliberate attempt to enrage him.
Nana Yaw Amponsah became incensed following a contentious penalty decision that resulted in Kotoko’s 1-0 loss to Karela United on February 2, 2023.
Karela United was given a penalty by referee Emmanuel Tampuri when Kotoko’s Mohammed Sheriff collided with a clumsy challenge just behind the penalty area. However, Boakye, who had been fouled, fell into the area and outwitted the official.
Samuel Atta Kusi stepped up and converted the spot-kick, which made Shaibu Tanko win his first league game for Karela United and end Kotoko’s unbeaten run at the Crosby Awuah Memorial Park in Aiyinase.
The Chief Executive Officer of Kumasi Asante Kotoko tweeted on his official Twitter account for the second time, which connotes a decision made by a referee in a game against Asante Kotoko.
There have been two incidents, updated by the Chief Executive Officer, that occurred to Asante Kotoko in their last two away games: a 1-1 draw against Bibiani Gold Stars and their 1-0 loss at Crosby Awuah Memorial Park.
At 4:36 and 5:06 am, the official Twitter handle of Kumasi Asante Kotoko’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO), @NYA_Kotoko, was updated and sighted by the concerned team of editors at www.atspo.com.
The initial update was captioned, “The deliberate attempts to provoke me are very well noted. #GyeNyame.” and was followed by another update with the caption, “The deliberate attempts to provoke Asante Kotoko is also very well noted. S3 wo pamo ohufuo a wok)to ni b33ma #Kum Apem a Apem B3ba.”
