About the game
Asante Kotoko maintained their push for a domestic double by defeating Division One side True Democracy in the FA Cup quarter-finals at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on Sunday, March 30, 2025.
In just 12 minutes, Saaka Dauda capitalised on their dominance, slotting home to give the Porcupine Warriors an early lead.
However, True Democracy put up a fight, scoring the equaliser in the 62nd minute.
Youngster Isaac Botchway found the back of the net, levelling matters with just about 30 minutes left on the clock.
As the game became increasingly cagey, with few chances, Kwame Opoku produced a moment of brilliance to restore Asante Kotoko’s lead and secure the victory with just minutes left on the clock, sending the fans into a frenzy.
It was the striker’s third goal in five games, earning Kotoko their third win in five games and extending their unbeaten run to five games.
