“Personal Statement of Apology – Mohammed Hussein

I wish to begin by expressing my deepest gratitude to the supporters of Accra Hearts of Oak, who turned up in their numbers to stand behind the team in our match against Kotoko. Your passion and loyalty mean everything to us, and I am painfully aware that my actions at the end of the game fell short of the respect you deserve.

 

With a heavy heart, I sincerely apologise to the Ghana Football Association (GFA), the referee, my teammates, our cherished supporters, and the wider football community. What happened after the final whistle was unacceptable, and I take full responsibility for my behaviour.

 

Throughout the game, I felt frustrated and felt I was being persistently fouled withiut protection from the referees. In that moment of emotion, I allowed frustration to cloud my judgment. Instead of showing restraint and respect, I reacted wrongly and I regret it deeply. My actions do not reflect who I am as a person, nor the values I hold as a professional footballer.

 

To the referee involved, I am truly sorry for confronting you in the manner that I did. I respect the difficult role referees play in ensuring fairness, and I humbly ask for your forgiveness for my lapse in judgment.

 

To the GFA, my club, my teammates, and our loyal fans, i promise to learn from this painful experience. I will work harder to remain calm under pressure, to honour the phobia badge i love and wear, and to uphold the dignity of our beautiful game.

 

Once again, I offer my heartfelt apologies to everyone affected by my actions. I am committed to making amends and proving, through my conduct going forward, that I have learned from this mistake ”

 

– Mohammed Hussein
