The caretaker coach of Kumasi Asante Kotoko Abdul Gazale, slammed Moro Osman, the referee who officiated his sides’ 1-1 draw at home to Karela United in the Ghana Premier League on Monday, May 29, 2023.
The Ghanaian champions in their match day 32 scored first but conceded late to record yet another draw at the Baba Yara Sports stadium as their winless home run extends to three League matches.
According to him, the performance of referee Moro Osmann was abysmal.
“I don’t usually like discussing officiating officials, but today I feel compelled to speak up…… based on what happened, it seems like this result was predetermined before the match.
“Imagine someone blatantly handling the ball, and you only give them a card, while the player who was fouled, you claim it was normal or too late to give them a second yellow card.
“It’s unfortunate that things unfolded this way, and I believe that some of the decisions made on the pitch were not correct,” Abdulai Gazale told StarTimes quoted by Ghanasoccernet.
Kumasi Asante Kotoko currently sit on fourth position on the league table with 48 points – eight points behind leaders Medeama SC while Karela United sit in 16th place with 41 points.
