Asante Kotoko's Ghana Premier League encounter with Bechem United which was scheduled for Thursday has been postponed, the Kumasi-based club has announced.
The scheduled matchday 16 fixture had to be rescheduled owing to a heavy downpour which made the Accra Sports Stadium pitch unplayable.
No official communication has yet come from the Ghana Football Association on the subject but the governing body is expected to soon make an announcement about the status and future of the game.
It is unclear if the tie will be rescheduled to Friday as was likely to have been done under ordinary circumstances, considering Kotoko will then only have two days to prepare for their upcoming showdown with archrivals Hearts of Oak on Sunday.
"Our game this evening has been called off due to the rains. We await further directives from the Ghana Football Association," Kotoko has announced on social media.
