Kotoko Storm Nkawkaw For Storm FC

The the road to Cape Coast Sports Stadium is nigh, but clubs will have to negotiate their way to the newly commissioned edifice.

Kumasi Asante Kotoko, finalist of last year’s competition, haven knocked out A.K Shion and Real 24 hours, both Division One sides, have another tie against Storm Academy as they continue to clear the path leading to the Central Region.

Michael Osei and his boys left Kumasi on Friday to the Eastern region to honour the competition, and he will be hoping he achieves another success as the team continue to rapair the cracks that were created before he came on board.

He is expected to make changes to his set up, and players who have not had enough minutes are likely to get the opportunity to represent the Porcupine colours.

There have been giant killers in this competition and Storm Academy will draw inspiration from the glory chalked by other lower division clubs against premiership sides.
