FC Samartex has alleged that some supporters of Asante Kotoko stoned their team bus, shattering its windows, following their Ghana Premier League clash in Obuasi. The incident reportedly occurred after the game, leaving players and officials shaken but uninjured.
The attack came in the aftermath of a tense encounter between the two sides, with emotions running high. Samartex officials expressed disappointment over the actions, condemning the act as dangerous and unnecessary.
“This type of behavior has no place in football,” a club representative stated. “We are grateful that no one was physically harmed, but this is a reminder of the need for better security to protect players and staff.”
The club has called on the Ghana Football Association (GFA) and law enforcement to investigate the incident thoroughly, urging for stricter measures to prevent future occurrences. Asante Kotoko, meanwhile, has yet to release an official statement on the matter.
The GFA is expected to look into the situation to determine any sanctions or actions against the individuals involved, as both clubs emphasize the importance of ensuring a safe environment for teams and fans alike.
