Ghana Football Association President Kwesi Nyantakyi has condemned the action of Hearts of Oak supporters in their 3-1 loss at home to WA All Stars.

Disgruntled fans pelted referee Ernest Baafi and his assistants with objects for what they described as unfair officiating.

The Hearts of Oak supporters claimed Baafi allowed an offside to stand although television showed it was a clean goal and also cried they were denied two clear penalties.

The capital-based have been charged with misconduct on three counts and will face punishment from the Ghana FA.

Nyantakyi, who doubles as owner of Wa All Stars, said the fans had no business to put up such a violent behaviour even if the referee was poor.

"Granted the referee was poor, nobody has the right to act in such at lawless manner,"Nyantakyi told Accra-based Happy FM.
