Asante Kotoko march on in the cup
Heart of Lions are out and Asante Kotoko go through, 2‑1 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Emmanuel Antwi runs at them all day
Successful dribbles: 34. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.
Match2 Jan 2027
Albert Amoah leads the rout of New Edubiase United
4‑0, and Albert Amoah took the headlines on an afternoon when everything Asante Kotoko tried came off. Days like this are retold all winter.
Match30 Dec 2026

Albert Amoah scores twice — 9.22
Two goals and a mark of 9.22 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.
Match2 Jan 2027
12 unbeaten for Asante Kotoko
Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 12 matches without defeat is a foundation Asante Kotoko did not have in the autumn.

No sign of nerves from Peter Amidu Acquah at 20 — 8.16
The hardest thing about being 20 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Peter Amidu Acquah did not need any: 8.16, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

The season belongs to Gilbani Samba
An individual honour is a strange thing in a team game, and the best of them are never argued with. He has had the sort of year that ends with his name being read out, and Asante Kotoko have had the benefit of it.

Up for the corner, and Lord Amoah delivers — 7.71
Centre-halves are allowed forward twice a season and are judged on what they do when they get there. Lord Amoah scored, was marked 7.71, and got back before anybody noticed he had gone.
In brief
