Sports News
Berekum Chelsea players jubilating

League leaders Aduana Stars were shocked by Eleven Wonders at Techiman on Wednesday, 15 January 2020 in a mid-week Ghana Premier League day-4 match.

Eleven Wonders got the only goal of the match on the stroke of half-time via a penalty by Kwadwo Asamoah.

This victory is the first of the season for the Techiman-based side who featured debutant Prince Baffoe, while Aduana Stars also lost for the first time this season, and lost their 100% record.

In Berekum, Chelsea continued their fine form in the Ghana Premier League when they inflicted a 1 – 0 defeat on Dreams FC.

The only goal of the match was scored by Black Meteors’ Zakaria Fuseinu in the 15th-minute.

Both teams tried to score but the second-half could not produce any real goal scoring opportunity as the Berekum-based club secured their first win at home and made it 10 points.

Elsewhere, Medeama FC made it three wins out of four matches when they piped Kumasi Asante Kotoko by a goal to nil, courtesy a penalty by Opoku Agyemang.

This is the second consecutive defeat by the Porcupine Warriors after losing 0 – 1 to Chelsea over the weekend in Kumasi.

Medeama made it 10 points and climbed to the league ladder on goal difference, ahead of Chelsea. Their lead will, however, be dependent on Ashgold Legon Cities FC’s encounter later this evening.

Accra Hearts of Oak continued their renaissance after a poor start to the season, drawing 0 – 0 with WAFA at the Sogakope Astro Turf Park.

The Phobains were better and well-organised but failed to take advantage of their dominance in the game. 

WAFA goalkeeper Ferdinand Acquah denied Hearts the opener with a superlative save from Kojo Obeng Junior’s shot.

King Faisal, however, got their first point of the season, drawing 2 – 2 with Bechem United at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium.
