GPL: Eleven Wonders Coach Ignatius Osei-Fosu Attacks Assistant Referee After Defeat To Bechem United

Eleven Wonders head coach Ignatius Osei tried to physically attack the assistant referee during his side’s Ghana Premier League defeat to Bechem United on Friday.

Eleven Wonders lost the game 3-1, however, Osei-Fosu was not happy with the assistant referee.

Joy Sports sources say the former Liberty coach started to verbally abuse the assistant referee after constantly complaining about the decisions.

The linesman lost his cool and responded by also insulting the Eleven Wonders coach as an exchange of insults followed.

The altercation didn’t end there as Osei-Fosu approached the assistant referee after the game and attempted to hit him before police officers intervened.

The coach had to be aggressively dragged off the pitch to prevent any physical clash.

His side, Eleven Wonders took the lead in the game through Samuel Boakye. The home side then equalised through a penalty by Emmanuel Owusu Boakye with 15 minutes to play.

Hafiz Wontah Konkoni put the Hunters in front in the 83rd minute before Listowel Amankona put the game beyond Wonders with a sumptuous finish.

Bechem United move to the top of the table temporarily after their first win in 2021.
