Asante Kotoko on Sunday afternoon drew 1-1 with WAFA SC to earn a vital point in the ongoing Ghana Premier League.

Nicknamed the Porcupine Warriors, the team visited the Red Bull Arena in Sogakope to honour a date on matchday nine of the ongoing 2020/2021 Ghana Premier League season.

With WAFA SC playing as the better side in the first half, the team finished with a 1-goal lead courtesy of a strike from danger man Daniel Lomotey.

After recess, the Asante Kotoko team worked hard in a bid to stage a comeback. Fortunately for the team, their efforts paid off in the 62nd minute when in-form striker Kwame Opoku found the back of the net.

Although the two teams put up a good fight from there on, neither side could get on the scoresheet and have been forced to settle for a point apiece.

The result sees Asante Kotoko stay in 6th position on the Ghana Premier League standings while WAFA occupy 5th.
