“We wish to state that the results should have been 0–1 in favour of Elmina Sharks FC and that for fear of our lives, coupled with the police admission that they could not guarantee our safety, the officials were compelled to extend the added time and award a penalty unduly to Gold Stars to equalise”, the statement read.


“By the 44th minute, our player, Benjamin Tweneboah, in Jersey No. 11, scored the first goal of the game and as he celebrated his goal, he was hit with a stone and a slab and he immediately collapsed.


“Tweneboah, together with the PRO of the club, Richard Arthur, who was also hit with an object, were rushed to the Bibiani Goldfields Hospital but even in that state, they were pursued by the Gold Stars fans to the hospital,” the statement recounted.


The statement further said one of the assistant referees, Aaron Churcher, was also hit with stones, and further warned that if he discontinued officiating, he would be subjected to a worse punishment.
