Bibiani Gold Stars vs. Asante Kotoko game will be assessed by Match Review Panel

The Match Review Panel will examine the encounter between Bibiani Gold Stars and Asante Kotoko, according to the Ghana Football Association (GFA).

The game ended 1-1 at Dun’s Park, with the home team securing a point thanks to a questionable penalty.

In the Kotoko box, a throw-in to Bibiani looked to hit the arm of a Gold Stars player.

However, the referee, Franklyn Akumatey, pointed to the spot and awarded a penalty to Kotoko, whose astonished players promptly approached the referee to express their displeasure.

Yahaya Dramani of Bibiani converted the penalty to equalize Steven Mukwala’s earlier goal, securing a vital 1-1 draw.

The GFA announced in a statement on Wednesday that the game will be assessed by the Match Review Panel.

While sanctions against officials who erred in matches in past seasons were disclosed, a decision was made not to publish them this season, even though the punishments were carried out.
