The Ghana Football Association’s Disciplinary Committee has charged Hearts of Oak and their midfielder Hussein Mohammed for misconduct during their Week Nine Ghana Premier League clash against Asante Kotoko.
The Phobians, who lost 1–0 to their arch-rivals following Morifing Donzo’s penalty, allegedly confronted referee Reginald Collins Amoah “in a disorderly manner” after Mawuli Wayo’s stoppage-time equaliser was ruled out for offside.
In a statement, the GFA said Hearts “failed to control its players” after the final whistle, as well as their supporters, who threw “objects onto the field of play.”
Forward Hussein Mohammed was also accused of assaulting referee Amoah as the official, under police protection, made his way to the tunnel.
Both parties have until Tuesday, November 11, to respond to the charges.
Meanwhile, the defeat which was Hearts’ first of the season, sees them drop to fifth place on the league table with 16 points.
