Asante Kotoko got back to winning ways with a five-star performance against GoldStars at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on match-day 20 of the 2021/22 Ghana Premier League (GPL).
The Porcupines walloped the Bibiani-based outfit 5-0 to better their points total with fourteen matches more to end the league season.
Georges Mfegue began the rout, netting in the 32nd minute after a poor display from goalkeeper Ernest Kusi.
The Cameroonian stepped up four minutes later to give Kotoko a 2-0 from a counter-attacking move, heading into halftime.
After the break, Kotoko continued their dominance and Augustine Agyapong, in the 59th minute registered his name on the score sheet.
The right-back fired from a shortly-taken freekick from Richmond Lamptey and the ball deflected before going past Kusi in the goal.
