FA Cup set for Friday launch

Ghana's lower division sides will discover their opponents in the first round of the 2011 MTN FA Cup when it is officially launched in Accra on Friday.

The competition which made a comeback after more than ten years in the cold generated huge excitement last season with division one side Nania FC beating Berekum Chelsea and Kumasi Asante Kotoko enroute to a historic win.

Now organisers are hoping for the same level of excitement when this year's edition kicks in. Premier division clubs will mostly draw a bye in the first round but will be thrown into the mix in the round of 32.
