Asante Kotoko 4-2 Panther FC: Ugandan striker Mukwala hits ground running with debut goal [Watch the goals]

The Porcupine Warriors rallied from behind to brush aside the lower division side in their first pre-season game in Accra

Asante Kotoko came from two goals down to defeat Panthers FC 4-2 in a pre-season friendly at the Legon Park in Accra on Monday.

The Porcupine Warriors, who are expected to depart the country in the coming days to Turkey for a tour, were pegged back in the game after Panthers punished them twice due to defensive blunders.

However, Stephen Amankona pulled one back by the half-hour mark from the spot after a Kotoko player was brought down in the box.

Few minutes later, Ernest Osei Poku who has been handed a two-week trial at the club, levelled the score against the run of play for Kotoko before Ugandan striker Steven Mukwala sent the Premier League champions into the lead for the first time in the game.

After the break, Kotoko showed class and dictated the play, especially in midfield, and began to cause troubles for Panthers’ back four.

Their pressure eventually paid off as substitute Afoakwa added another goal from close range to make the game a none contest.

Kotoko, who have temporarily suspended their tour to Turkey due to visa processing issues, will begin their title defence on September 9 against debutants Nsoatreman FC at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium.

They have already unveiled Koualao Dane Djomian Thomas Pele in a three-year deal as a free agent, goalkeeper Pouaty Moise D’assise from Cameroon and Ugandan striker Steven Mukwala.

The club is also expected to announce the signing of Enoch Morrison from city rivals King Faisal this week after the player has been training with the first team.

Asante Kotoko temporarily suspend Turkey tour

The Porcupine Warriors were billed to leave the country on Sunday but their plans have been hit by factors beyond their reach

Ghana Premier League champions Asante Kotoko will have to start their pre-season in Accra following a decision by the club’s management team to temporarily postponed their trip to Turkey.

The Porcupine Warriors were scheduled to leave Ghana to Istanbul on Sunday, August 14 but there have been some changes in their plans.

This became necessary due to the fact that most of the players and technical team members have not been able to secure their visas for the trip.

Also, the club is without a head coach following the resignation of Prosper Ogum Narteh last month and reports suggest Burkinabe coach Malo is leading the race to fill the void.

“Our planned trip to Turkey for the second phase of our pre-season which was originally scheduled for the 14th of August, 2022 has been postponed due to visa processing delays,” a club statement read.

“A new date will be communicated,” the statement added.

As a result, Kotoko have been billed to face lower division side Panthers FC at the Legon Park on Monday morning.

Kotoko, who will begin their title defence on September 9 against debutants Nsoatreman FC at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium, have already unveiled Koualao Dane Djomian Thomas Pele in a three-year deal as a free agent, goalkeeper Pouaty Moise D’assise from Cameroon and Ugandan striker Steven Mukwala.
