He claimed that the match between the Phobians and Real Tamale United, which ended 4-1 in favour of the latter, was fixed.<\/p>\n<p>RTU entered the game desperate for three points. It was their only hope of avoiding relegation from the top flight and they recorded a shocking result to stay up.<\/p>\n<p>He also claimed that the match between his own AshantiGold and Bibiani GoldStars, in which Yaw Annor scored two goals to win the golden boot, was fixed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGhana Premier League was competitive but wasn&#8217;t happy with the final day because there were lots of fixed games. RTU never won any match away. AshGold v Bibiani Gold Stars was fixed. Wonders v Aduana was fixed. King Faisal vs Legon Cities was fixed,&#8221; Commey reportedly said on Space FM.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNormally when it gets to that time, clubs want to survive. FA doesn&#8217;t know about it. How do you think Hearts of Oak will lose by four goals? Did you watch them yesterday? We shouldn&#8217;t be hypocrites or we won&#8217;t progress. I&#8217;m a Hearts fan, I&#8217;m telling you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Things like this, according to the popular football administrator , will force football in the country to regress if not addressed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet us not be hypocrites or else we wouldn&#8217;t move forward in Ghana football.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI won&#8217;t blame the GFA on this, because teams do everything possible to stay in the league during the latter part of the league,\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n<p>Match-fixing trended heavily during the just-ended season after AshantiGold and Inter Allies were demoted after being found guilty of fixing their final day encounter in the 2020-21 season.<\/p>\n<p>The Ghana Football Association slapped these two clubs hard after discovering evidence that the 7-0 result was not genuine.<\/p>\n<p>Both clubs have appealed their relegation and are awaiting a decision.<br \/>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3><strong\/><\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"peace_black_text_4\">Source: Ghanasoccernet.com<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<table width=\"100%\" border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" style=\"clear:both\">\n<tr>\n<td><span class=\"peace_red_text_1\">Disclaimer<\/span>: <span class=\"peace_ash_text_1\">Opinions expressed here are those of the writers and do not reflect those of .  accepts no responsibility legal or otherwise for their accuracy of content.
