Sekondi Hasaacas honor Asante Kotoko’s 83rd anniversary with a combined club 11
Asante Kotoko’s 83rd anniversary has prompted nothing short of excitement as Ghana Premier League clubs throw in something worth lamenting on for the Kumasi based side.
Well wishes from various clubs in Ghana have been trickling in for Kumasi Asante Kotoko for the whole of today, yet it was Sekondi Hasaacas FC’s which has gained the most attention.
It has been an incredible and breathtaking line of events – the Porcupines opened the anniversary with a game a week before against bitterest rivals Accra Hearts of Oak, resoundingly punching the Accra based side twice in the face with goals coming from Burkinabe import, Sogne Yacouba.
