Dreams FC have formally filled a protest against Real Tamale United (RTU) following their outstanding Ghana Premier League match on Wednesday in Dawu.
The reigning MTN FA CUP champions filed the protest on Thursday morning at the Ghana Football Association for the misconduct by RTU for fielding unqualified players.
In a statement released on Thursday afternoon by the Dawu based club, it stated that the Dreams FC captain opposed the identities of the Real Tamale United players which was duly noted and recorded by the match officials before the game commenced.
Earlier the GFA Disciplinary Committee charged Real Tamale United and initiated an investigation into the incident, which has cast a shadow over this season's competition, with the league set to conclude this weekend.
The GFA’s statement reads: "Real Tamale United have been charged with a breach of Section 34(6)(d) of the GFA Disciplinary Code, 2019, following their Ghana Premier League game against Dreams FC. It is alleged that the Club intentionally deceived the match officials during the said game by using unregistered players to impersonate officially registered players of their club, which constitutes misconduct that brings the name of the game into disrepute."
Ghana national football team produced a disciplined and resilient performance to hold football giants England national football team to a goalless draw in a tightly contested encounter that showcased tactical maturity, defensive organisation, and unwavering determination.
Football has a way of rewarding perseverance, and few stories capture that better than the remarkable rise of Benjamin Asare. At 33 years old, Asare finally stood between the posts for Ghana at the FIFA World Cup, completing a journey that many would have thought impossible just a few years ago.
England manager Thomas Tuchel has highlighted Ghana’s dangerous counterattacking style, describing the Black Stars as a team capable of hurting opponents with their pace, physicality, and direct approach.
