Kumasi Asante Kotoko have sacked head coach Steve Polack, barley 48 hours after the team was eliminated from the CAF Confederation Cup by CARA Club of Congo.
According to a Press Release, Polack’s termination takes immediate effect.
Kotoko were eliminated from the ongoing CAF Confederation Cup after losing 6-7 on penalties to CARA Club of Congo in Brazzaville on Wednesday.
The Porcupine Warriors fought gallantly, losing by a lone goal in regulation time to leave the tie even at 1-1 over the two-legs.
Kotoko also won the first leg by a lone goal in Kumasi a fortnight ago, squandering 3 penalty kicks in the process.
But they went to Congo full of confidence, and really put up a fight but CARA got a goal in the 30th minute to ensure the tie goes into penalty kicks.
In the nervy marathon penalty shoot-outs, Kotoko’s Obed Owusu, Kwame Boahene, Amos Frimpong and Jackson Owusu missed their kicks.
