In-form Mysterious Dwarfs continued their impressive run in the UMB Division One League, securing their sixth victory in seven matches with a hard-fought 1-0 away win over Soccer Intellectuals FC at the Senya District Assembly Astroturf on Sunday. The victory further strengthened their position at the top of the Zone Two league table, taking their points tally to an impressive 18 from seven matches.

Former Premier League side Nations FC continue to mount pressure on the league leaders in Zone Two, recording a fourth consecutive league victory with a convincing 2-0 win over newly promoted Fettehman United FC at the Dr Kwame Kyei Sports Complex on Saturday. After a goalless first half, substitute Dede Ishmael made an immediate impact, coming off the bench to break the deadlock with a superb finish in the 55th minute. Effah Joseph then put the result beyond doubt with a late strike in the 89th minute to seal all three points for Nations FC. The victory takes Nations FC to 17 points after seven matches, keeping them second in the Zone Two league table, with just one point behind leaders Mysterious Dwarfs.

Ebony FC maintained their impressive form in their second consecutive season in the UMB Division One League after recording a hard-earned 1-0 away victory over newly promoted Ebiemo Nzema FC at the Ampain AAK II Sports Arena on Sunday. Ebony FC struck early in the first half to take the lead before the hosts mounted a determined fightback after the break in search of an equaliser. However, the visitors remained resolute defensively to preserve their advantage and claim all three points. The victory was Ebony FC's third away win of the campaign and their fifth triumph in seven matches this season. Their impressive run has taken them to third place in the Zone Two table with 16 points.
