“Both of them are out of danger”, Assistant Physiotherapist, James Cosmos Appiah, told the club’s website.

“Emmanuel Asante complained of dizziness whiles Obed Owusu had an ankle sprain. Both of them have been given medication; Asante will be off duty for two to three days and Obed Owusu just a day”.
