Kotoko crowned Ghana champions

A spectacular end to an intriguing season as Asante Kotoko are crowned champions of the Ghana Premier League.

Richard Yeboah's 59th minute goal secured the Porcupine Warriors a 1-0 victory in their final day fixture of the Glo Premier League against Tema Youth.

On a day when drama unfolded to determine the relegation sides, Kotoko were celebrating another important title at the Baba Yara Stadium.

And being crowned champions on the domestic front marks a return to continental football next season in the CAF Champions League for Kotoko after four seasons.

Kotoko stretched the league by 14 points after losing just three games and had the second best defence in the league, conceding 18 goals - second to Aduana, who picked 17 goals from the back of the net.

Maxwell Konadu's side won 18 times, drew nine games and scored a total of 43 goals, the highest by any club in this season.
