A furious Elmina Sharks coach Yaw Acheampong walked out from a post conference in protest of poor officiating in their 1-0 defeat to Legon Cities FC on Wednesday.

A late penalty converted by Jabila Abdul Karim condemned them to a painful defeat at the Accra Sports Stadium.

''When the league started we were all expected free and fair officiating. I am not happy about the officiating in today’s game,'' Acheampong said.

''I don't want to blame my players for the defeat. It wasn’t fair on the referees part. It wasn’t a penalty. The referee awarded a dubious penalty.''
