Augustine Okrah

Bechem United playmaker Augustine Okrah has rendered an apology to fans and his Club for headbutting assistant referee Stephen Balanguena during his side’s MTN FA Cup final loss to Hearts of Oak last Sunday at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium.

Okrah was sent off in the 68th minute for his unimaginable behaviour in the FA Cup final on Sunday after a decision went against him as the Hunters were already down 2-1 in the second half.

His dismissal proved costly as the Brong Ahafo outfit lost 2-1 to Hearts of Oak to record winners Accra Hearts of Oak.

The left footed star scored 18 times this season.

Below is the full statement by Okrah:
