Kumasi Asante Kotoko marked a return to Africa with a 2-0 away win over Power FC and set up the premiership’s title decider with leaders, AshantiGold.
The Porcupine Warriors with a game to go have secured qualifications for next year’s African Champions League with AshantiGold.
Kumasi Asante Kotoko kept their chase for the league title on course as they struggled to beat Power FC at the Ho sports stadium.
The first half ended goalless with both sides pushing for the opener.
Kwame Obeng-Darko continued his fine run in the league when he put Kotoko in the lead two minutes after resumption of play.
Power FC had a goal by Kwabena Yaro disallowed for an offside.
Kotoko defender, Osei Kwame surprisely collapsed in the course of the game and was replaced by George Yamoah.
The defender was rushed to the Ho Government hospital for treatment.
With some nine minutes to go and against the run of play, Asante Kotoko were home and dry as Kwame Obeng-Darko grabbed a brace scoring the second goal for the Porcupine Warriors.
The win by Kotoko thus sets the title decider date for the final day on Sunday when they play leaders, AshantiGold at home.
