The Division One League match between Elmina Sharks and Swedru All Blacks ended in chaos as some Sharks players and officials were seen attacking the referee after the final whistle.
The heated encounter, which took place at the Nduom Sports Complex, saw Swedru All Blacks clinch a narrow 1-0 victory, a result that appeared to frustrate the home side.
After the game, tempers flared, leading to an altercation involving a few Sharks players and officials confronting the match referee. The home side appeared to be unhappy about a penalty call that decided the game.
Videos circulating on social media show match officials being escorted off the pitch under heavy security as tensions escalated.
The Ghana Football Association (GFA) and relevant authorities are expected to review the incident and could take disciplinary action against individuals involved.
Meanwhile, Elmina Sharks owner Paa Kwesi Ndoum has descended on the Ghana Football Association, demanding stronger commitment to making the league safer and more entertaining.
“Don’t take a clip and say shouldn’t someone take responsibility. It is the GFA. They take responsibility. They must make everybody safe. They must make the games entertaining, they must pay the refs appropriately and pay everybody well, not just take FIFA money and go and rest somewhere,” he stated.
