GPL WK 7 ROUND UP: Hearts Wins Narrowly, Kotoko Held to a Draw and More…

Akoon Park

On Friday Karela United leapfrogged the ‘gittering Legon Cities’ by a 3-0 thumping as they end their winless streak in a glamorous manner in Tarkwa.

Prolific striker Diawisie Taylor came to the party by hitting a double before Samuel Ofori added the cushioning.

Accra Sports Stadium

Early scares hit Inter Allies as they allowed King Faisal to crawl back from 2-0 down to make it even.

A Victorien Adebayo and Samuel Armah two goals were struck out by Ibrahim Osman and Mustapha Mohammed but Armah added another before Michael Gyamerah sealed it to make it 4-2 at 90 minutes.

Theater of Dreams

A Kofi Kodzi lonely strike was enough to earn Accra Hearts of Oak all the three maximum points as they edged passed Dreams FC in an exhilarating game in Dawu and back to winning ways.

But the astonishing link play en route to the goal was a thing of beauty prolly even more than the goal itself. There was a flick and then a quick interlacing passes before Kodzi powers home with a low drive.

Bechem Park

The dramatic incident of juju gave the Bono derby all the hype it craves for and the local derby lived up to all the hype.

But how sweet it was to beat your arch rival, even more so when you’re the first to take all three points off them.

Bechem United got the better of Berekum Chelsea as the latter lost for the first time this season. Two first half goals from Charles Mensah and Adu Kwabena were enough to sink the league leaders.

Chelsea’s consolation was an own goal from Kofi Agbesimah.

Accra Sports Stadium

WAFA came, saw and conquered Accra Great Olympics in their own backyard. Olympics’ stuttering performance continues as they lost by a lone goal to nil.

Len Clay Park

In Obuasi, Ashanti Gold left it late to inflict an excruciating pain on Ebusua Dwarfs. A 75th minute lone strike from Samed Ibrahim won the game for the Miners.

Nana Agyeman Badu II Park

Elsewhere in Dormaa Ahenkro, goal poacher Yahaya Mohammed scored from a free-kick to still all the three points available and in the process took his goal tally to 7.

That’s 7 out of 7 for the leading scorer of the campaign.

Baba Yara Sports Stadium

Kumasi Asante Kotoko left everything on the pitch before equalizing late to salvage a draw at home.

Wasteful Liberty Professionals will have to blame themselves after squandering chances upon chances especially in the early exchanges of the second half.

Ndoum Stadium

Elmina Sharks shared spoils with Eleven Wonders at home following an entertaining 1-1 draw at home.

Techiman Eleven Wonders drew first blood before Sharks restored parity almost immediately.
