Angry Asante Kotoko fans reportedly subjected midfielder Owusu Jackson to severe beatings following their ‘painful’ defeat against New Edubiase United in the Ghana Premier League on Friday afternoon.

The 26-year-old reportedly exchanged words with irate fans who were verbally abusing the players and technical team following their defeat 2-1 home reverse against ten-man Edubiase side.

Fans held players hostage at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi for close to four hours after the final whistle as Kotoko slipped to their second straight defeat.

Jackson who joined the Porcupine Warriors from Berekum Chelsea tried trading words with fans at the Baba Yara Stadium and things got worse as they brutally hauled him into the fans and thought him physical action.

A month ago, the midfielder had pleaded with the club’s fans to exercise patience towards the playing body but on Friday things went bad for him as he tried to exchange words with the angry fans.
