Asante Kotoko SC suffered a humiliating 3-0 defeat to Accra Lions in the Ghana Premier League.
Jacob Awoute scored in the 19th minute, giving the hosts the lead.
Yao Sokpoli doubled the tally before halftime before David Akintunde sealed the victory for the hosts with a goal in the 74th minute at the Accra Sports Stadium.
Despite dominating the last 15 minutes, Kotoko couldn’t find the net.
Kwame Opoku had a chance to reduce the deficit in injury time, but Daniel Afful made a crucial save to deny him.
The defeat saw the Porcupine Warriors sink to third with 47 points after 22 matches, pending a mid-week outstanding game.
Meanwhile, Accra Lions have moved out of the relegation zone to 14th with 29 points.
Accra Lions will travel to Kpando to face Heart of Lions on Sunday, while Kotoko will host Nations FC at the Dr. Kwame Kyei Sports Complex in Kumasi.
