Asante Kotoko this afternoon humble Asokwa Deportivo in MTN FA cup round of 16.
Goals scored by Brazilian import Fabio Gama and in-form forward Evans Adomako were enough to push Asante Kotoko to the last eight of the competition.
Brazilian playmaker Fabio Gama stepped up to bury the ball at the back of the net after eleven minutes.
Adomako, who has rediscovered his best form in the knockout competition was on hand to net in successive knockout competition to give the Reds a two-nil lead into half time.
Deportivo halved the deficit eleven minutes into the second half to create a tense second half for the Porcupine Warriors.
But coach Johnson Smith who was deputizing for Mariano Barretto cajoled his boys to hold onto the lead and eventual book a ticket to the next stage of the competition.
Kotoko are the defending champions of this competition after beating Hearts of Oak back in 2017 and would want to draw level with their bitterest rivals in terms of the most successful club in the MTN FA Cup.
The match ended 2-1 in favour of the pocurpines warriors.
