Kumasi Asante Kotoko has trailed by a goal to nil to Berekum Chelsea in match-week 30 of 2021/22 Ghana premier league at Baba Yara sports stadium.

Before this game, Kotoko management called on the GFA to postpone the match week 30 matches until their postponed match week 29 match against Ashantigold SC at the Obuasi Len clay stadium is honoured due to the competitiveness in the title race.

The match went into recess without a goal from both sides. The Porcupines started the 2nd half positively by creating chances up front but failed to hit the back of the opponent’s net.

Berekum Chelsea attacker, Kofi Owusu was sent off in the 64th minute for punching Emmanuel Nettey in the face.

The Bibires raised the tempo of their performance by controlling the game despite playing with 10 men.
