In a shocking turn of events at the Sunyani Coronation Park, Nsoatreman FC’s coach, Maxwell Konadu, became the target of an attack by irate Boafoakwa Tano fans following a goalless draw. Chaos erupted as soon as the final whistle blew, with fans storming the pitch and assaulting the former Black Stars player.
Despite a fiercely contested game where both teams failed to score, Konadu’s team exhibited a strong defensive performance, securing at least a point in the match. However, the joy of the result was marred by the violent actions of Boafoakwa Tano supporters.
Konadu was swiftly rushed to the hospital for treatment, highlighting the severity of the assault. The Ghana Football Association is set to investigate the incident, awaiting the report from the match commissioner in Sunyani.
Boafoakwa Tano, after a remarkable 16-year absence, had previously secured promotion to the Ghana Premier League at the end of the last 16, marking a historic return to the top flight. However, the unfortunate incident involving the attack on Konadu has cast a shadow over the sporting event, emphasizing the need for swift and decisive action to address such violence in football.
