]]> Kumasi Asante Kotoko players, on Tuesday, received the GH¢5000 winners’ package promised them by the club’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Dr. Kwame Kyei after their FA Cup final victory over Hearts of Oak.

Kotoko defeated Hearts 3-1, courtesy a first-half from striker Saddick Adams, to clinch their second FA Cup title in 4 years.

CEO Dr. Kwame Kyei promised the entire playing body GH¢5000 each after the win and that promise was redeemed on Tuesday afternoon much to the delight of the players.

Kotoko received a total sum of GH¢150,000 for their victory and have also been rewarded with a place in next season’s CAF Confederation Cup.

The win takes Kotoko to 10 Cup wins, one clear of Hearts on the competition’s all-time winners list.

]]> A Saddick Adams goal in extra time gave Kotoko a 1-0 victory over Medeama in the semi-finals of the MTN FA Cup played on Monday.

The match was supposed to have been played on Sunday but heavy rains forced a postponement.

For large periods, the match did not open up but Medeama started to create chances in the second half.

The failed to put them away and that was the same situation with Kotoko leading to a goalless draw in regulation time.

8 minutes into the first half of extra time, the ball was not cleared by Medeama from their penalty box and Kotoko forward Adams struck to give the Porcupine Warriors the lead.

Medeama tried to get back into the match and they went close in the 116th minute but Kotoko cleared their lines hurriedly and survived.

The result sets up a juicy MTN FA Cup final between rivals Hearts of Oak and Asante Kotoko on October 29 in Tamale.

It will be the first time the two teams will face each other in the FA Cup since their last date in 1990.
