The former Kotoko trainer was not pleased with the performance of the match officials after his side was denied a controversial penalty call when striker Eric Gawu was fouled in the Hearts of Oak 18-yard box few minutes to the end of the game.
Zito was quoted as saying the officials should allow Dreams FC to play their game after the painful loss.
“Eric Gawu went ahead with the ball and the defender pushed him down. I saw a penalty. We are being punched by certain things,” Zito said.
“They should leave us to play our game. This has been happening in most of our away games.
“Because the FA President (Kurt) was a director of the club, the referees fear they will be accused if they give us the right decisions,” he puffed.
The Ghana U20 head coach is also has also been accused of using ‘abusive’ words directed at the match officials even though that is yet to be proven by the FA.
He has until February 5 to appeal the decision.
