Fans of Asante Kotoko were left furious after the referee awarded Legon Cities a penalty in the first half of the matchday 26 encounter in the Ghana Premier League.
A brace from Hans Kwoffie and the penalty converted by Michel Otou saw Legon Cities leave Kumasi with a 3-1 victory.
Cities started well, but it took a controversial penalty decision for them to take the lead in the 17th minute.
Christopher Nettey was adjudged to brought down Jonah Attuquaye. Michae Otuol’s strike from 12 yards was perfect.
Hans Kwofie doubled Cities’ lead barely 10 minutes later, shocking Kotoko fans.
Mudasiru Salifu cut the deficit to a few minutes before halftime.
