Hearts of Oak beat Kotoko in Accra

Match day 20 of the betPawa Premier league has ended across all league centers as Accra Hearts of Oak beat arch rivals Asante Kotoko to lift the 2023 President Cup.

Kumasi King Faisal also beat Accra Great Olympics in Abrankese whiles league leaders Aduana Stars fell at the Nsenkyire stadium to FC Samartex.

King Faisal 2-0 Accra Great Olympics

Kumasi King Faisal got back to winning ways with a 2-0 victory over  Accra Great Olympics on Saturday afternoon at the Kwame Kyei Sports Complex in Abrankese.

The home side who drew goalless with Aduana Stars in midweek, started the game well and got rewarded for their effort in the 12th minute from the spot-kick.

Baba Yahaya converted beautifully from the spot to give the Insha Allah boys the lead.

King Faisal extended their lead in the 70th minute through Samuel Adom Antwi who tapped home from a Suraj Ibrahim cross.

The Dade boys fought back harder in search of a goal but all efforts were wasted as King Faisal ended the game with all maximum points.

Accra Hearts of Oak  Asante Kotoko

Accra Hearts of Oak on Sunday defeated Kumasi Asante by a lone goal at the Accra sports stadium in the 2023 President Cup final and also match day 20 of the ongoing betPawa Premier league.

Coach David Ocloo was in the dug out in the absence of head coach Slavko Matic as the “Phobians” edge past the porcupine warriors.

The first half ended in a goalless draw after several goalscoring opportunities were squandered by both sides.

Back from the break, Accra Hearts of Oak broke the deadlock through Konadu Yiadom who headed home from Linda's set-piece in the 57th minute.

The visitors kept knocking for the equalizer but all efforts proved futile as Accra Hearts of Oak emerged victorious in the 2023 President Cup.

Bechem United 2-0 Bibiani Goldstars

Bechem United beat Bibiani Goldstars at the Nana Fosu Gyeabour park in Bechem on Sunday to keep their title chase on.

The Hunters bounced back from their painful 1-0 defeat to Asante Kotoko in midweek to record a 2-0 victory over the miners.

Emmanuel Owusu's 66th minute strike and Hafiz Konkoni's 70th minute goal was enough for Kasim Mingle's men to record their 7th home victory of the season.
