The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has declared Kumasi Asante Kotoko “champion of champions” for the 2013/2014 season.
In a statement on its official website, the GFA said that its Emergency Commitee had, quoting “article 10(2) of the General Regulations to back its decision,” branded the Kumasi-based club the ultimate champions for the season.
The winners of the Premier league traditionally face the winners of the FA Cup in a Super Cup match.
However, with Kotoko winning both competitions last season, the GFA has decided to name them “automatic champions.”
Article 10 (2) of the general Regulations state that the Ghana Football Association “may, however also, organize a ceremonial match between the club and either the runners up in the league or FA Cup for the purpose of awarding the trophy.”
The GFA has not, as yet, set a date for the match to officially award Kumasi Asante Kotoko the trophy.
