Accra West Division Three middle league final ends abruptly as supporters turn off flood light

 

The Accra West Division Three middle league final between Banana-Inn FC and FootConnect FC ended abruptly at the Fadama AstroTurf when the flood-light at the facility was bizzarly put off by a section of supporters.

The game was headed for a grand-style finish with FootConnect leading 2-0 against the mega-rich Banana-Inn side when the incident happened in 67th minute.

The incident was preceded by a number of altercations between the two sets of supporters who throned the Fadama Park to cheer their respective teams to victory.

 

After the incident, players and officials of FootConnect opted not to continue the game despite the referee’s insistent. They accused the match officials for conspiracy to help Banana-Inn FC win.

The game halted for over half and hour while technicians tried to resolve the  issue before the referee finally brought the game to an abrupt end.

The match will continue today on Monday after at the same venue but only the remaining 23 minutes will be played. Kick off is at 2:00pm.
