2021/22 Ghana Premier League: Week 23 match report – Kotoko end bad run against King Faisal
Kumasi Asante Kotoko ended their bad run against city rival King Faisal in week 23 at the Baba Yara Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
The league leaders did not waste time announcing their intent, scoring three minutes after kick off.
Asante Kotoko was given a free kick on the left side of the box. Imoro Ibrahim stepped up and converted to make it 1-0.
In the 39th minute, Imoro Ibrahim nearly scored again, but his free kick sailed off the crossbar. Mfegue followed and found Fabio Gama, but he couldn’t make the final connection.
King Faisal came dangerously close to equalizing, but Ortiz Sam’s attempt was blocked by goalkeeper Danlad Ibrahim.
After halftime the Porcupine Warriors made some changes to their squad Emmanuel Keyekeh replaced the injured Mudasiru Salifu.
King Faisal got an opportunity to score through a free kick but that was wasted.
The game ended 1-0 with Kumasi Asante Kotoko extending the gap at the top.
