Asante Kotoko have been eliminated from the ongoing 2025/2026 CAF Confederation Cup by Wydad Athletic Club.
The Ghanaian giants who were hoping for redemption after losing 1-0 in the first leg at the Accra Sports Stadium succumbed to a heavy defeat in Morocco.
Asante Kotoko suffered a 5-1 heavy defeat at the hands of Wydad Athletic Club on Friday, October 24, 2025, at the Mohammed V Stadium in Casablanca.

The result on Friday, October 24 confirmed a 6-1 aggregate loss for the Ghanaian side who were hoping to qualify to the group stages of the CAF Confederation for the first time in 7 years.
The Moroccans opened the scoring early before Kotoko briefly offered hope when captain Samba O’Neil scored in the 19th minute to make it 1-1 on the night.
However, that equaliser only seemed to spark Wydad into life, as they went on to score four more goals in a ruthless attacking display.
Hamza Hannouri, Stephane Aziz Ki, Thembinkosi Lorch, Oussama Zemraoui, and Mohammed Bouchouari were all on target as Wydad cruised into the group stage of the competition.
