Chief Executive Officer of Aduana Stars Albert Yahaya Commey has rubbished complaints by Al Tahaddy to the Confederation of African Football (CAF) that officials of Aduana Stars have given them intimidating reception since arriving in Ghana on Friday.
According to Commey, the allegations were unwarranted and an attempt by the visiting team to divert the attention of the Ghanaian side from the clash.
The former Hearts of Oak administrator in addressing the media in response to the allegations made by Al Tahaddy club President Khalid said they have no reasons to frustrate the Libyan side..
“Per CAF Regulations if your distance is more than 200 kilometers you need to fly your opponent. So we decided to fly them to Kumasi. But from Dormaa to Kumasi the distance is 195 Kilometers which is less than 200 Kilometers meaning we could bus them to Dormaa.”
“Originally, we were making arrangements for them to consider hotels in Sunyani so we took pictures of hotels in the city for them to make their own choices.”
“After sending these pictures and communicating with them on whatsapp, we expected a reply from them but we never got any response from them”, he added.
Aduana stars on Wednesday at the Osead3y) Agyeman Badu II Park will play Al Tahaddy after losing the first leg 1-0 in Cairo.
