The Porcupines couldn’t hold on to their early lead as WAFA came from behind to snatch a precious point on the road with a 1-1 stalemate.
Kotoko gaffer Mariano Barreto brought in Felix Annan to start in posts as he dropped Mubarik Yussif for Habib Mohammed and Emmanuel Keyekeh taking the defensive midfield position.
Asante Kotoko got the first goal to go in front just two minutes into the game when Abdul Ganiu Ismail converted a spot kick after WAFA goalie brought striker Andy Kumi Francis down in the goal area.
The Academy Boys drew level on the stroke of halftime when former Hasaacas forward Justus Torsutsey headed in a beautiful cross from Lawrence Agyekum on the right side of attack to restore parity before the break.
