WAFA facing sanction over assault on medical staff

WAFA are facing a sanction from the Ghana FA after their players allegedly abused the medical staff of the St Johns Ambulance team during a Premier League match against Hearts in Accra.

Players of the Sogakope side put up the cowardly act during their 1-1 stalemate with the Phobians in Accra where they reportedly refused to be attended to by the first aiders despite lying injured on the pitch.

Players were seen in a physical tussle with the medical staff after they attempted to stretch a player off.

The St Johns Ambulance officials have petitioned the country's National Sports Authority to sanction the club for failing to control their players.

The National Sports Authority is expected to forward the complaints to the Ghana FA for an appropriate action to be taken.

WAFA players have been condemned for their conduct with the Ghana FA expected to come heavy on the team.
