Ghana's male Olympic team on Thursday completed their two-game series drawing 3-3 with Bofoakwa Tano at the Sunyani Coronation Park.
The Black Meteors on Wednesday drew 1-1 with Kumasi Asante Kotoko at the same match venue.
The two test matches formed part of the team's six-game friendly build up towards their All-African Games qualifiers.
Goals from Edmund Owusu Peprah, Bismark Idan and Nafiu Iddrisu put the Black Meteors in the lead over the premiership side.
But Bofoakwa Tano crawled back finding the back of the net three times to end the game three goals apiece after a host of changes which saw a complete change in the Black Meteors starting line.
The team breaks camp for the weekend's premiership action after their tour of Sunyani.
Earlier in the game against Asante Kotoko, the Porcupine Warriors took the lead through Kwame Obeng Darko in the first half.
But in the second half, Eric Bekoe cancelled Asante Kotoko’s lead as he equalized for the Black Meteors, making it 1-1.
Ghana’s Black Meteors have been paired against the Olympic team of the Ivory Coast in the second round of qualifiers for the All-African Games in December.
The Black Meteors are grouped in Zone III together with Ivory Coast and Nigeria for the single slot for the 9th All Africa Games, Men’s Football tournament to be hosted by Algeria.
The winner of the Ghana-Ivory Coast tie would meet Nigeria.
Nigeria drew a bye and would meet the winner over the two-leg tie in the third round, which is the last qualifying hurdle in February 2007.
The Black Meteors would play at home first on the weekend of December 15-17 with the return leg slated for Abidjan next year on the weekend of January 12-14.
