Samartex defender Evans Quao has accused Medeama president Moses Armah of instigating an assault on him during their clash in the Tier 2 competition on Sunday.

The Former Hearts of Oak centre half was hit with an object by an unidentified supporter while making his way into the pitch.

He was caught in a heated argument with some home fans amid suspicion it was in an apparent attempt to throw the match into confusion.

The Disciplinary Committee of the Ghana Football association is expected to open a formal investigation into the incident.

The Mauve and Yellows endured the drama of a 9-8 penalty shoot-out before knocking out Samartex to book a quarter-final berth in the Competition.
