Hearts of Oak pipped sworn-rivals Asante Kotoko with what appeared a howler by the center man Samuel Suker, awarding them a penalty which was neatly converted by Vincent Atinga.

Samuel Yeboah’s drive hit Ahmed Adams’ back when the Kotoko defender had gone too low to shield the ball.

The referee pointed to the spot for Atinga to convert, a decision that did not go down well with the Porcupine Warriors.

Agitated assistant coach of the Reds Godwin Ablordey blasted the referee after the game accusing him of cheating them.
