Heart of Lions shock Kotoko as Ghana Premier League returns

The second half of the Ghana Premier League 2023-2024 season is off to a shocking start with Heart of Lions beating Kumasi Asante Kotoko Sporting Club 1-0.

Lions picked up only their third win of the season after getting past Kotoko with the only goal of the game coming via Kwadwo Asamoah in the 52nd minute.

Kotoko’s Nicholas Mensah was sent off in the second half after picking up a second yellow card that reduced Kotoko to 10 men.

Lions’ win push the Kpando lads from the bottom spot in the standings to 15th ahead of Sunday’s fixtures that involve other relegation threatened teams.

Kpando have accrued 18 points while Kotoko’s loss keep The Porcupine Warriors in third place with 29 points on the back of registering eight wins, five losses and five draws.
