They stayed on the bench until after the half-time break before they joined the game.
Samuel Bioh emerged the hero of the game when he scored a 92nd-minute goal to give Aduana Stars a sweat victory.
Coach of Aduana Stars W.O Tandoh has shifted the blame on Maxwell, lashing out at him that he is a village coach, so he came to Dormaa without any tactics but superstition on his mind.
“Maxwell Konadu is a village coach who came to play village tactics in Dormaa. He is a disgrace to Ghana football & new generation of footballers,” he said.
“He didn’t deserve to coach a national team. If Kotoko deploy such bush tactics in London, Hearts will beat them.”
