Kotoko will now play second-tier Deportivo on Wednesday

By Ameenu Shardow

Asante Kotoko have quickly arranged to play a friendly game with Deportivo following the cancellation of their match with Berekum Arsenal.

The Premier League champions were billed to play the Gunners on Wednesday at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi.

However a late pull out by Arsenal meant Kotoko were without a warm up game ahead of their weekend Super Cup clash with New Edubiase.

Management thus move quickly to secure the friendly game with the second tier club to be played at the same venue on Wednesday.

The match will offer the technical team a final verdict on the team to select for the Super Cup match on Sunday against the FA Cup holders.
