Mohammed Huzeinu, a 21-year-old, has been sentenced to 100 days in prison by an Accra District Court for invading the pitch during Ghana’s match against Chad at the Accra Sports Stadium on Friday, March 21, 2022.
Huzeinu’s actions disrupted the game, potentially exposing the Ghana Football Association (GFA) to financial penalties, as the association frequently faces fines for such incidents.
Pitch invasions are considered a serious security violation, causing disturbances during matches.
This sentencing serves as a stern reminder to fans, encouraging them to adhere to stadium regulations and maintain order during games.
The GFA has consistently urged supporters to avoid such behaviour, emphasizing the need for discipline and compliance with matchday protocols to prevent fines and safeguard Ghana’s reputation in international football.
