Bibiani GoldStars continued their flawless start to the Premier League season with a hard-fought 1–0 victory over Swedru All Blacks at the Swedru Sports Stadium on Saturday.

A decisive strike from forward Michael Nkoah just two minutes into the second half sealed all three points for the defending champions in a tightly contested Matchday 4 encounter.

The newly promoted All Blacks began brightly, buoyed by their passionate home supporters, and dominated large spells of the first half. They created several promising chances but were left to rue wasteful finishing and the defensive solidity of GoldStars, marshalled expertly by veteran centre-back Vincent Atingah.

GoldStars, who had absorbed the early pressure, found their breakthrough shortly after the interval. Nkoah timed his run perfectly to latch onto a precise through ball, displayed excellent composure inside the box, and coolly slotted past the advancing goalkeeper to open the scoring.

The hosts pushed forward in search of an equaliser, with substitute Hakim Mohammed coming closest in stoppage time when his powerful effort rattled the woodwork. Earlier, Samuel Atta Kumi was denied a second goal for GoldStars when his close-range shot also struck the upright.

Despite All Blacks’ spirited late surge, GoldStars’ composure and experience proved decisive as they held firm to secure their second consecutive league win of the campaign, and extend their perfect start to the title defence.
