The 2019/2020 Ghana Premier League got back in full flow this weekend. Some teams left with joy while others disappointments.
Hearts of Oak recorded their first win; Great Olympics, King Faisal, Eleven Wonders and Ebusua Dwarfs are yet to pick a point this season.
15 goals were produced, 10 yellow cards and 1 red card were flashed out by referees across the nine league venues.
Substitute Nana Kofi Nabil scored his third goal on the trot and of the season as in-form Medeama SC came from a goal down to draw 1-1 with Liberty Professionals at the Carl Reindorf Park in Dansoman on Saturday afternoon. Elvis Kyei Baffour scored for the Scientific Soccer lads from the spot.
Hearts of Oak ended their winless run with a narrow 2-1 win over Ebusua Dwarfs at the Accra Sports Stadium. Joseph Esso and Kofi Kordzi were on target for the Homers while Robert Ato Hammond scored for the Visitors.
Asante Kotoko were left licking their wounds after they were pipped 1-0 by Berekum Chelsea at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi. Kofi Owusu scored the goal for the Bibires. Ampem Dacosta was mistakenly red-carded in the game.
Dreams FC settled for an entertaining 0-0 draw game at the Theatre of Dreams in Dawu.
Yahaya Mohammed continued his fine Home scoring form with a double as Aduana Stars secured a 2-1 win over pointless King Faisal at the Nana Agyemang Badu Park in Dromaa. Kwame Peprah scored the consolation goal for the Insah Allah lads.
Sharks played out a frustrating 0-0 drawn game with West Africa Football Academy (WAFA) at the Nduom Sports Complex in Elmina.
Emmanuel Owusu and Mark Agyekum were on target for Ashanti Gold as they as romp past Techiman Eleven Wonders 2-0 at the Lenclay Stadium in Obuasi.
Prince Adu Kwabena goal was enough to give Bechem United a vital 1-0 win over Great Olympics at the Nana Gyeabour Park.
In the final game, Karela United defeated Inter Allies 2-1 at the Akoon Community Park in Tarkwa. Thanks to goals from Franklyn Osei and Ofosu Abega while Victorien Adebayor got the consolation goal for the Capelli Boys.
