Soccer- seven players qualified from 1/16th

Accra (Greater Accra) 23 June 2000
The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has said on Thursday that seven players are not qualified for the 1/16th stage of the ABC/FA Cup knock out matches slated for Sunday June 25.
The statement signed by Deputy General Secretary of the GFA Mr Ampim-Darko said they include Amoah Acheampong of Kwaebibirem who was banned for four matches including the 15th week match in which he was expelled and fined 100,000 cedis.
The statement said six other players - Yusif Baba of Hasaacas, Yaw Kyeremeh of Bofoakwa, Kwame Asiedu of Dwarfs, Sammy Addo of Ghapoha, Daniel Oppong of
B.A. United and Eric Boakye of Goldfields - have all been banned for one match each after receiving three yellow cards in the ABC Premier League.
Meanwhile, all clubs are advised to pay fines imposed on their players before they feature for them in Sunday's matches. Failure to comply with this directive would render the player unqualified.
