GPL Round UP: Hearts, Kotoko and Wa All Stars Held As City Marches On

The return of the Ghana premier league could not have been any worst for the top four clubs as they all dropped points over the weekends.

With a total of 12 goals scored across the eight match venues, none of the top four clubs bagged three maximum points in a draw specialist week.

The only Saturday match of the week saw Kumasi Asante Kotoko dropping points at the Tema Park in a 1-1 thriller away to Inter Allies. Bernet Ofori’s beauty for the Reds was cancelled out by Fredrick Opoku Yamoah for the Eleven is to One. Kumasi Asante Kotoko surge top for the next 24 hours before vacating the seat for the ‘right’ owners- Wa All Stars.

Up north at the Wa Park however, wicked goal keeping from Fatawu Dauda shared honours for the two sides as the Miner bagged their sixth clean cleans in nine attempts. Fatawu Dauda denied the host on eight occasions including a world class one handed save deep into injury time in the eventual 0-0 stalemate.

The football president, Baba ‘John’ Mahama, accounted to his people with a world class dead ball to floor WAFA SC at the Den. The quick footed play maker capped another MOTM performance with a beauty in a 1-0 win for TCFC over the soccer mathematicians.

New Edubiase came from an early latif Blessing opener to draw parity in a 1-1 score line at their new Bekwai based home grounds. Blessing registered his 10^th of the season to open the scoring for the Nokia Boys but Wahab Yayaha leveled for the Yen Ko Nkoa boys.

Two spot kicks for Christopher Bonney were enough to tie down Sekondi Hasaacas away to the rejuvenated Ebusua Dwarfs. The mystery club mystified their guest with ruthless interchange of passes to earn two spot kicks in the 2-0 win.

The Brong Ahafo derby saw Bechem United spanked Berekum Chelsea for 2-0 thanks to Ernest Baffoe and Solomon Mensah at the Bechem Park.

The honey moon period for Dreams FC ended at the Tarkw Park despite the aesthetically driven goal from star man Aron Amoah. The CAF Confederation campaigners have their midfield general, Kwesu Donsu, to thank for their 2-1 win over the dreamy Dreams FC. Donsu’s brace tamed Akunor’s side on the road.
