Kumasi Asante Kotoko secured a 1-0 win over Great Olympics on Match Day 32 of the Ghana Premier League at the Accra Sports stadium  on Sunday thanks to a strike from Franck Etouga.

The Cameroonian match winner in the 69 minute is his 21st goal of the 2022/23 Ghana Premier League season.

Great Olympics were explosive in the first half looking to end run of poor results in the League but Kotoko goalkeeper Kwame Baah stood between them and a goal as the half ended goalless.

Baah made excellent saves to deny Varney Sando and Ibrahim Sulley before saving a well-struck freekick from Raymond Grippman to keep his side in the game.

After the break, Kotoko took the lead thanks to a spectacular strike from Etouga in the 69th minute. Olympics fought back gallantly in search of the leveller, but it clearly wasn’t enough to earn a point, as Kotoko held on to win the contest.

Kotoko will be crowned on June 12, 2022 at their Baba Yara Stadium home ground in Kumasi when they play against already relegated Elmina Sharks FC in a coronation match.

Kotoko will be Ghana’s representative in the 2022-23 TotalEnergies CAF Champions League campaign.
