Asante Kotoko head coach Dr Narteh Ogum has found a perfect replacement for injured player Michael Kyei Dwamena as he brings Bernard Somuah in his 19-man squad against Accra Lions today at the Baba Yara Stadium.
Coach Ogum will enter the game without some key players like, Georges Mfegue, Nicholas Osei Bonsu, Enock, Morrison, IsaacOppong, Nana Benyin Amoah and of course the team captain, Danlad Ibrahim.
Ogum dropped three players and introduced three players of the team that went to Tamale last Saturday.
