Kotoko, King Faisal

Kumasi King Faisal have booked a 2022/23 MTN FA Cup final contest with fellow Ghana Premier League side Dreams FC.

The ‘Isha Allah’ lads sealed a spot after a memorable comeback to beat Nsoatreman FC 3-2 in the semifinal of the MTN FA Cup played at the Dr. Kwame Kyei Sports Complex on Sunday.

Faisal went down in the 9th minute after conceding a penalty that was beautifully converted by Samuel Ofori for the opening goal.

Baba Yahaya set up Frimpong Boateng to score the equalizer in the 35th minute as the two players combined to score an absolute beauty.

Frimpong Boateng’s half volley zoomed into the back of the net as King Faisal took the lead in the 44th minute.

Kwame Nana Junior scored inside 55 minutes to draw Nsoatreman FC level but Samuel Adom Antwi dashed their hopes with a stunning goal in the 64th minute to restore King Faisal’s lead.
