The league’s two big sides, Hearts of Oak and Asante Kotoko could not spread any festive cheer around as they could only draw their respective matches before Christmas Day.
Lots of goals in midweek as a total of 20 were recorded from eight grounds but match-day-11 could produce four wins.
Asante Kotoko’s winless run continued to five successive matches after allowing New Edubiase to earn a point in their six-goal thriller at the Len Clay Stadium that ended 3-3.
Having raised into a 3-1 lead before halftime with goals from Charles Coffie, Edward Affum and Samad Oppon, the Porcupine Warriors saw their lead cut as New Edubiase striker, Bansi Seidu who scored twice from the spot kick hit a hat trick to exacerbate Kotoko’s frustrations.
Seidu’s final goal on the day came in the 88th minute from the spot, leaving coach Paa Kwesi Fabin with four more games to save his job at Kotoko.
Kotoko are still two points better than the bottom-placed team.
