Following a directive from the government in the fight against COVID-19 and the new wave expected, the Ghana FA has charged all clubs to play their games behind closed doors.
While some clubs are strictly adhering to the directive of the FA, some clubs have failed to go by the instructions of the Ghana FA and have been allowing fans at their games.
Before the full restriction of fans from entering match venues to watch games, clubs were given the opportunity to allow 25% of fans at their centers amidst the observation of the COVID-19 protocols.

However, several clubs, including Hearts of Oak, who were eventually sanctioned by the FA, failed to ensure the strict compliance of the COVID-19 protocols compelling the FA from banning fans from going to the stadiums completely.
However, with the passion they have for their clubs, some fans climb trees of tall buildings to watch their games while several others jump over walls to watch the games.
The situation was, however, different for these fans at the Accra Sports Stadium on Sunday evening when they attempted watching the Hearts-Aduana Stars game by jumping the walls.
