Football Crazy

Tomorrow morning I’m off to Kumasi to check out the final game of the two game Confederation of African Football finals between Kumasi Kotoko and the Accra Hearts of Oak. Breaking with the obruni tradition I have decided to become a Phobian as all Hearts of Oak supporters are called….I’m wondering whether I will make it out of the stadium tomorrow especially if the Hearts win….at least the harmatan has come so a rain induced stampede can be ruled out….

It’s going to be crazy the first time two Ghanaian teams have played each other for the championship. Ghanaians are so passionate about football they decided to postpone the series until after the election to avoid any problems.

The Phobia cheer song…. ‘We are the Accra heart of Oak, until out bones are rotten, we NEVER SAY DIE’….certainly rings true after goal in the last 10 seconds to earn a tie in the first game of the series.
