Ghana FA charges Hearts of Oak for fan misconduct and unwanted social media commentary against match officials
The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has charged Ghanaian giants, Hearts of Oak for alleged fan misconduct during their recent game against Dreams FC.
The said game ended in a 2-2 draw at the Baba Yara Stadium in matchday 21 of the Ghana Premier League last week.
Hearts of Oak are said to have breached Section 16 of the Disciplinary Code, 2019, and Section 34(6)(d) of the GFA Premier League Regulations, 2019.
However, the club has been charged for alleged inappropriate behaviour exhibited by their supporters towards the match officials during the game.
Again, the Disciplinary Committee of the FA sees the club's social media commentary regarding the match officials as misconduct that brings the reputation of the game into disrepute.
Hearts of Oak have been given until Wednesday, March 20, 2024, to respond to the charges.
The Ghanaian giants has been impressive under Ivorian tactician Aboubakar Ouattara, winning three games and drawing two since the resumption of the league.
The Ivorian tactician has amassed 11 points from a possible 15 after five games in the second half of the domestic top-flight.
Hearts of Oak have now surpassed rivals Asante Kotoko on Ghana Premier League table. They are now 7th on the standings but tied on points with Kotoko.
