In a distressing turn of events, experienced match commissioner Charles Dankwah collapsed after being attacked by irate Real Tamale United fans during the first half of their outstanding Premier League match against Medeama in Tamale.
Paramedics swiftly responded to revive Dankwah, whose collapse has led to a delay in the commencement of the second half. The attack on the referees by the fans has prompted concerns, with the match commissioner inadvertently caught in the crossfire.
Medeama has raised alarm, advocating for the match’s abandonment due to the volatile situation.
Real Tamale United, currently grappling with relegation concerns, is determined to secure a victory against the reigning champions. Having lost their last five matches, they face the looming threat of relegation to the Division One league after just the first round.
In contrast, Medeama SC aims to recover from their recent defeat to Young Africans in the CAF Champions League.
