"If I were around I would have called for the Hearts players to be tested for doping after the game," said Bekoe on Pure FM.

"I got scared by the comments of Samuel Boadu on Thursday after the Legon Cities game. If you look at the energy of the Hearts players, you could say they were too tough for Kotoko to compete with,” he added.

Eric Bekoe helped Asante Kotoko win the 2008 Ghana Premier League, finishing the season as top scorer.

The Accra-based giants, Hearts of Oak are closing in on a first title in eleven years with three games left in the 2020/21 season.
