Kotoko

Asante Kotoko will play five of their Ghana Premier League home games behind closed doors after pleading guilty to charges labelled against them by Ghana Football Association (GFA) Disciplinary Committee.

Kotoko were charged on four counts of misconduct in respect of their matchday three encounter against Berekum Chelsea at the Baba Yara Stadium last Sunday which left a fan injured after being shot in the head by police.

The affected games are against Ebusua Dwarfs, Liberty Professionals, AshantiGold, Bechem and Elmina Sharks.

The club will also pay a fine of ¢10,000.

Kotoko have won two and lost two after four games in the league. They are currently ninth on the standings with six points.
