Okwawu last Sunday trekked to the Kumasi Sports Stadium and succeeded in shattering the home invincibility of Kumasi Asante Kotoko with a well-executed 1-0 victory over the Porcupine Warriors, writes the Asante Kotoko Express.

It says on a particularly bad day that saw the club’s fans angry when Kotoko dissipated too many glorious chances and eventually lost to Okwawu United at the Kumasi Stadium, it needed the strength of about 70 policemen to shield players from an instant mob action.

“So angry were fans that they besieged the entrance to the dressing room soon after the match, asking to be handed the entire playing body to be taught some lessons in seriousness”, the club’s mouthpiece said.

The paper adds however that two of the players, Stephen Oduro and Michael Osei needed no protection. They were perceived to have played their hearts out and could not have been targets of the fans’ fury.
