The venue for this season’s MTN FA Cup final has been revealed with Accra Sports Stadium hosting the clash between Hearts of Oak and AshantiGold on Sunday 8 August.

Hearts of Oak – who holds the record as the most successful club in the history of the FA Cup with 10 titles will come up against 1993 champions AshantiGold SC from Obuasi.

The two teams booked their spots in the final after earning impressive wins on Sunday in Cape Coast.

After AshantiGold needed extra time to claim a 4-1 win against Berekum Chelsea, league champions Hearts of Oak thumped Medeaama 3-0.

The FA Cup final is returning to the capital for the first time in seven years following the decision of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) to rotate the venues for the final matches.

The last final that was held at the Accra Sports stadium was in 2014 when Asante Kotoko beat Inter Allies 2-1 to win a record eighth FA Cup title.

The match between Accra Hearts of Oak and AshantiGold SC, scheduled for 5 pm will be broadcast live on StarTimes Adepa 247.
