The Porcupine Warriors protested vehemently against playing the semi-final at the Accra Sports Stadium in a one-off game, insisting it will offer their bitterest rivals Hearts of Oak undue advantage.

After a brief standoff, the Kumasi-based giants have finally decided to accept the conditions of the NC and go ahead with the game.
The two biggest clubs in Ghana will therefore lock horns in a mouthwatering encounter on June 16.
