Asante Kotoko faced their first loss of the season with a 2-1 defeat to Legon Cities in an intense week 6 match of the 2024/25 Ghana Premier League. Played at the Accra Sports Stadium, the game was a setback for the Porcupine Warriors, who had been enjoying a solid start to the season.
Legon Cities took the lead in the 22nd minute when Albert Yeboah found the net, putting Kotoko on the back foot early in the game. Kotoko struggled to gain momentum but managed to equalize in the 76th minute, thanks to a goal by Albert Amoah. This goal sparked hope among Kotoko fans, with just 14 minutes left to secure at least a point.
However, Legon Cities struck again in stoppage time, with Abdul Rahman scoring the decisive goal to seal the victory.
Despite the defeat, Kotoko remains in a strong position in the league, sitting second with 15 points. They will aim to bounce back when they face Hearts of Lions on November 3, hoping to return to winning ways and continue their chase for the league title.
