Ex-Ebusua Dwarfs coach J.E Sarpong has jumped to the defence of under-fire referee Samuel Suker, claiming his penalty decision against Kotoko was right.

Suker has been in the news for all the wrong reasons after he awarded a controversial penalty to the home side in their 1-0 win over their sworn rivals.

Pressure has mounted on the trained teacher following the incident but hard-hitting coach JE Sarpong insists Suker was right.

“I don’t understand what kotoko fans are talking about because the ball was absolutely a penalty which no competent referee will overlook and I think referee Samuel Suker was absolutely fantastic on the day and if I’m to rate his performance," he told Accra-based Radio Gold

“I will give him 85% so if kotoko fans have anyone to blame, then they should rather blame Ahmed Adams for committing such a painful penalty."
