2023/24 Ghana Premier League: Week 9 Match Report – Dreams FC stun Asante Kotoko in Kumasi

Published on: 05 November 2023

In a highly competitive fixture of the Ghana Premier League week nine, Ghanaian giants Asante Kotoko and CAF Confederations Cup campaigners Dreams FC locked horns at the Baba Yara Stadium on Sunday.

Both teams went into the game on the back of defeats in their last Ghana Premier League games. Kotoko suffered a narrow defeat to Nsoatreman FC at the Nana Koramansah Park whiles Dreams FC succumbed to a 2-0 home defeat to Berekum Chelsea.

Today, the Still Believe lads travelled to Kumasi to beat the Porcupine Warriors to return to winning ways. Before this game, Dreams FC had suffered back to back defeats in the Ghanaian top-flight.

Dreams FC broke the deadlock before the halftime break through Abdul Aziz Issah. And with no additional goal in the second half, the CAF Confederations Cup campaigners cruised to victory to merit the three maximum points at stake.

Kotoko coach Prosper Narteh Ogum in search of the equalizer threw in his arsenals in second half, but Dreams FC showed determination and resilience to pick their first win in their last three games. Meanwhile, the record Ghana Premier League holders are yet to win a game since October 13.

Kotoko have dropped to the 14th position with 10 points whiles Dreams FC moves to the 10 spot with 11 points after 9 games into the season.

The Porcupine Warriors are away to Samartex in the week 10 of the domestic top-flight.
