Asante Kotoko Win Ghana Premier League Title With Three Games To Spare

Kumasi Asante Kotoko have won the 2021/22 Ghana Premier League title after holding out for a draw against AshantiGold on Thursday, June 2.

The Porcupine Warriors heading into the outstanding game against their rivals needed just one point after Hearts of Oak failed to beat Karela United on Monday.

AshGold got the game’s opener through Yaw Annor, who netted his 12th goal in his last five matches just 10 minutes into the game.
