Panel dismisses Dwarfs complaint against referee Kyeremanteng

The match review panel of the Ghana Football Association has dismissed a complaint filed by Dwarfs against referee Patrick Kyeremanteng for unfair treatment during their Week 19 league match against Aduana.

Dwarfs complained against referee Kyeremanteng and his assistants George Seijah and Augustine Akugre claiming they wrongly disallowed a goal scored by Bismark Asiedu.

But the match review panel says the decision "to disallow the goal scored by player Bismark Asiedu of Dwarfs was right and in line with the Laws of the Game."

The executive committee of the GFA has upheld the recommendations by the match review panel.

The executive committee further commends referee Kyeremanteng band his assistant referees for disallowing an offside goal in the face of mounting pressure from the home fans.
