This was not football. This was savage lawlessness.
A female referee brutally assaulted —for simply doing her job?. This is a cowardly, disgraceful act that drags the sport into the gutter and exposes a frightening collapse of discipline and security.
Worse still, the injured referee—crying and writhing in pain—was treated with sachet water and a dirty rag by gloveless hands, as per the footage. No medical care. No dignity. Just shocking neglect.
This is violence, not passion. Criminality, not competition.
Those responsible must face arrest, prosecution, and lifetime bans. Any official who failed in their duty must also answer.
An attack on a referee is an attack on the game itself.
This shameful episode deserves total condemnation and zero tolerance.

I strongly urge the Vice President of Ghana and the Queen Mother of that traditional area to publicly condemn the brutal assault. This act of violence is unacceptable and sends a dangerous message about the safety of women in sports.
Their voices are urgently needed to call for swift justice, the arrest and prosecution of the perpetrators, and stronger protection for match officials. Silence is not an option. High-profile female leadership must stand up now to say clearly: violence against women in football will not be tolerated.

Watching the video, one observes that there was no single policeman around to ensure safety and order. Why? Somebody must be punished for this.

Well the assaults are now part of the game and the GFA even encourage the hooliganism. It show that people love the game and ready to fight for their team. When Polley was killed nothing happened so people feel that it is okay to beat match officials as they will go free.

This is shameful and unacceptable!!! Was there no security to protect officials?? Such centres should be banned from hosting any matches. Let them travel to Accra to watch matches.
