Kotoko record heaviest victory in Africa

The win at the Baba Yara Stadium gave the Porcupine Warriors a comfortable lead in the first leg of the preliminary round and before they won the 2 leg by a goal to nil in Malabo to see them through to the 1 round of the competition.

A brace from striker Kofi Nti Boakye, Abdul Aziz Yusif, Michael Anaba, Richard Mpong, Siedu Bancey and Joseph Ochaya puts Kotoko in the driving seat.

And the result was Kotoko's biggest in the competition since its inception.

Nti Boakye opened the scoring for Kotoko, thirteen minutes into the start of the match before Yusif doubled their lead after 29 minutes.

Kotoko finished the first half 4-nil up with midfielder Anaba and Nti Boakye scoring the third and fourth goals.

Back from the break, Kotoko had to wait until the 70th minute before they scored their fifth goal through Mpong.

Substitute Bancey after a flurry of misses finally found the back of the net. Then in the 89th minute, Ochaya put the gloss to the finish when he slotted home the seventh goal.
