GPL 2025/26: Kotoko frustration grows after stalemate Berekum Chelsea

By Emmanuel Austin Baah On Jan 12, 2026

Asante Kotoko’s push up the Ghana Premier League table stalled after a goalless draw with Berekum Chelsea at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium.

The Porcupine Warriors dominated possession but failed to turn control into goals, leaving them six points off the pace at the top. Kotoko will next travel to Bibiani to take on GoldStars.

Despite spending long spells without the ball, Chelsea created the clearer openings, registering six shots, three of which tested the Kotoko defence.

he single point keeps Samuel Boadu’s side in 16th place, inside the relegation zone.

Chelsea now shift focus to their next fixture against Swedru All Blacks.
