Why Mbella’s third goal for Kotoko against Accra Lions wasn’t an offside
The Cameroonian striker netted his second hat-trick of the season for the Porcupine Warriors but there were controversies surrounding the third goal
Asante Kotoko striker Etuoga Mbella Frank Thierry scored hat-trick when they defeated Accra Lions 3-1 at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on Saturday.
Although, there were debates surrounding his third goal of the day, a footage from StarTimes have surfaced to clear the doubts.
In the footage, it can be clearly seen that before young defender Augustine Agyapong’s long pass to Mbella, the Cameroonian striker was in an onside position as he was several metres behind the two centre defenders of Lions.
However, he managed to out-muscled them to win the ball, before rounding up the goalkeeper and calmly slotted in the goal.
