Story: Collins Agyekum-Gyasi
TRAFFIC came to a standstill at Obuasi yesterday afternoon moments after Asante Kotoko drowned the visiting Dolphins in their second leg CAF confederations cup.
It was like the Obuasi Municipality was the venue of the match as large groups of people gathered in the streets and lanes discussing the “magic” of the Fabulous club that they refer to as “The Manchester United of Ghana”
Cars tooted their horns, others were wrapped in the red and white colours of Kotoko while drinking bars were busy as people trooped in their numbers to express their joy over some bottles of beer.
However, there were some regretable moments in Obuasi. Early on Saturday, the rumour that made the round was that with the exit of Hearts and Ashgold from the continental assignment, non-supporters of Kotoko moved heaven and earth to see Kotoko were kicked out of the competition.
And really when Kotoko scored an own goal, some known supporters began jubilating that the club’s end had come.
