A solitary goal courtesy of Frank Sarfo Gyamfi after 73 minutes in the Bechem against Bechem United, was enough to earn Asante Kotoko a hat trick of victories in their last three league matches.
The Porcupine Warriors started slowly in the game, and Bechem United pounced on every error, but failed to take advantage of their early dominance.
Neither side could bring the virginity of the game though the best chance fell the way of Abednego after Samuel Sekyere’s poor back pass. The 5.7t striker fluffed the chance when he was one-to-one with Ernest Sowah.
Kotoko were better in the second half, winning all the 50-50 balls and were quick in the ball transition from defense to attack. Their persistence paid devidends as they won a Greek kick at the edge of the box. However, Sarfo Gyamfi flew his shot into the air.
Numerous chances followed, but Bennet Ofori and Obed Owusu lost their goal scoring boots. It took 73 minutes to break the deadlock, and it was beautifully done by Sarfo Gyamfi.
A perfect swinging corner was nodded on his path, and the volley was sumptuous.
Bechem United’s response to going behind was terrific but Kotoko held on to secure all points, and close the gap to the second place on the league log to 2 points.
