Medeama SC, in their response, pleaded ‘not guilty’ and further explained that it was only a handful of supporters who threw sachets of water, for which its management swiftly intervened to curb the misdemeanor.

The response added that the club would therefore not agree with the charge that it failed to control the supporters.
