Juju does not play football - Kwame Kyei jabs Kotoko and Aduana Stars after playing with 10-men

Published on: 20 February 2020

Asante Kotoko Executive chairman, Dr. Kwame Kyei has jabbed both his club and Aduana Stars after playing with 10-men in match week 11 of the Ghana Premier League in Dormaa on Wednesday.

Both teams entered the field with 10 players each which many believed it was a superstitious act as neither team wanted to lose the game.

Despite the embarrassing scene at the Nana Agyemang Badu I Sports Stadium, the defending champions defeated the Porcupine Warriors courtesy a lone strike from Samuel Bioh in stoppage time.

Speaking to Asempa FM, Kwame Kyei distanced himself from the whole incident claiming he did not travel with the team hence he has no idea what actually transpired.

"I am here at Adako Jachie working on a makeshift home venue for the club, if they go (to Dormaa) to do their thing, I have no part to play in it and its unfair to involve me in such matters," he said.

"Juju does not play football, I feel if you pray, whatever is left is up to you (team/players) to deliver.

"If you don’t work hard, nothing will come to fruition. So let’s rid the game of juju matters so our football can improve."

He added, "You won’t see things like these in Europe, it’s only here in Africa, I disagree juju plays football."

"If juju plays football, then India would have won the World cup."
