Ampem Darkoa coach faults Edo Queens’ protest to CAF over WAFU B final

Ampem Darkoa head coach, Charles Anokye Frimpong, has faulted Edo Queens’ protest to CAF after their WAFU B Women’s Champions League final in Cairo.

DAILY POST recalls that Edo Queens has requested the annulment of the continuation of the match.

Edo Queens is challenging the continuation on three main grounds, including an unauthorised change of venue from Ouagadougou to Cairo, Egypt, without the required confirmation from WAFU B in accordance with CAF’s decision.

The club also alleged failure to restore sporting conditions, claiming it was prevented from fielding eligible players who participated in the original match and raised concerns about its delegation being accommodated in a military base rather than a conventional team hotel.

Frimpong argued that the Nigerian side should have protested before the game rather than after the outcome.

“They was series of meeting with the WAFU organisers on how they want things to be played out,” Frimpong told 3Sports GH.

“They didn’t protest then they came down to Egypt and we were at the military base together with Edo Queens we trained and played the game.

“After the match when I saw the publication, I didn’t want to give attention to that because they knew the organisers faulted, instead of them to protest with Ampem Darkoa, they were comfortable.

“If we had played the game remaining extra time that day, they (Edo Queens) could have won. Sometimes if you don’t respect football this are some of the things that could happen to you.”
