Gama and Vinicius: Asante Kotoko's Brazilians on show in Bechem United thrashing

Asante Kotoko proved too strong for Bechem United in their Ghana Premier League meeting on Wednesday as the Porcupine Warriors registered a 4-0 home triumph in Obuasi.

Brazilian duo Fabio Gama and Michael Vinicius, Ismail Abdul Ganiyu and Francis Andy Kumi scored for the 23-time league champions in the outstanding matchday 16 fixture at the Len Clay Stadium where Kotoko will be based for the remainder of the season.

The Kumasi-based side has moved to third on the league standings, leaving Bechem in seventh position.
