The Board of Accra Hearts of Oak has extended warm congratulations to archrivals Asante Kotoko SC following their victory over South African giants Kaizer Chiefs in the 2025 Toyota Cup.
The message of commendation was delivered through senior board member and former Ghana Football Association President, Dr Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe, who praised Kotoko’s performance and highlighted the significance of the win for Ghanaian football.
“We also congratulate Asante Kotoko for winning the Toyota Cup in South Africa,” the statement read. “This victory should inspire all Ghanaian clubs to pursue continental glory. Together, we can continue to rebuild and elevate Ghanaian football on the African stage.”
Asante Kotoko secured the trophy after a dramatic 3-2 win on penalties, following a stalemate in regulation time. Goalkeeper Mohammed Camara emerged as the hero of the day with crucial saves at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban on Saturday, sealing a memorable victory for the Porcupine Warriors.
The gesture by Hearts of Oak underscores the importance of solidarity and mutual respect within Ghana’s football fraternity. Despite their historic rivalry, the two clubs remain united in their shared mission to restore the glory of Ghanaian football on the continental front.
