FC Samartex put up a spirited performance to draw 0-0 with leaders Medeama SC at Nana Nsenkyire Park on Sunday. 

The home team started the match looking to unsettle the visitors but their effort came to nought as Medeama took over affairs after the half hour mark.

Medeama SC were the better side in the second half as they committed men forward in search of a breakthrough. However, Samartex remained resolute at the back, frustrating Medeama's attacking intentions.

The score remained 0-0 at full time leaving Medeama SC very close to their first league triumph.

Medeama will play Tamale City on the final match of the season at Akoon Park in Tarkwa Sunday.
