Captain Fantastic Samba O’Neil spared the blushes of Asante Kotoko head coach Karim Zito in a 2-2 draw against Medeama SC.

The Porcupine Warriors clawed their way back from a two-goal deficit to secure a point in a matchday 12 encounter of the 2025-26 Ghana Premier League.

Asante Kotoko were facing a damaging home defeat when Derrick Fordjour and skipper Mubarak Yusif gave Medeama a deserved lead at the Baba Yara Stadium.

Karim Zito and his men were staring down the barrel by halftime in front of a disgruntled crowd in attendance on Sunday, November 30, 2025.

By the hour mark, Peter Amidu Acquah had halved the deficit, as Kotoko continued to probe for an equaliser, which eventually came through a stoppage-time header from O’Neil.
