Asante Kotoko secured a crucial 1–0 home victory over Karela United in Week 5 of the Ghana Premier League at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi.
Following their home loss to Aduana Stars over the weekend and the departure of Eric Tinker from the club, they needed to get back on track.
The Porcupine Warriors started the game brightly, dictating play and found the back of the net after an intricate round of passing before Opoku Agyemang coolly slotted in the opener.
That was a 1–0 nil lead for Kotoko at the expense of the travelling team, who came out of their shells looking for the equalizer.
The win gives Asante Kotoko three vital points as they look to climb up the league standings and build momentum heading into the upcoming fixtures.
