Asante Kotoko produced a spirited fightback to hold Medeama to an entertaining 2–2 draw in Kumasi, recovering from two goals down to claim a hard-earned point on home soil. Elsewhere, Hohoe United delivered the standout performance of the weekend, securing a famous 2–1 away victory over Bechem United, their first away win in the Premier League while Champions Bibiani Gold Stars also made a statement, defeating Aduana FC at Dun’s Park to climb into the top four as their title defence gathers momentum.

Asante Kotoko 2-2 Medeama 

Asante Kotoko staged a dramatic late comeback to salvage a 2–2 draw against Medeama at the Baba Yara Stadium on Sunday, overturning a two-goal deficit to earn a valuable point.

Medeama struck twice early on—Derrick Fordjour opening the scoring in the 5th minute with a composed volley before Yussif Mubarik doubled the lead from the penalty spot in the 18th minute. Kotoko struggled to find rhythm in the first half but returned stronger after the break.

Basake Holy Stars secured a vital 1-0 win over Nations FC on Sunday at the Ampain AAK II Sports Arena City, continuing their impressive resurgence and moving out of the relegation zone.

In-form forward Prince Tweneboah proved decisive once again, scoring his second goal in as many matches after netting the dramatic winner against Asante Kotoko in midweek. His second-half strike sealed back-to-back victories for Holy Stars, their first such run this season, and further strengthened their push up the Premier League table.

Though Nations enjoyed a slight edge in possession (52%), they struggled to turn it into meaningful chances.

Tweneboah’s breakthrough finally rewarded their dominance, and Holy Stars held firm thereafter to protect their slim lead.

Swedru All Blacks 0-0 Young Apostles

Swedru All Blacks were held to a frustrating goalless draw by visiting Young Apostles in their Matchweek 12 Premier League match on Sunday.

Buoyed by their previous hard-fought win over Dreams FC, the Black Magicians aimed to secure another home victory, but a disciplined Young Apostles side stood firm to deny Ahmed Fathi a third straight win at the Swedru Sports Stadium.

The visitors, seeking to halt a three-match winless run, delivered a resolute performance and will be satisfied to leave Wenchi with a valuable point.

Both sides created chances in an evenly balanced contest, but poor finishing and strong defensive organisation ensured the game ended without a breakthrough.

Swedru All Blacks will look to bounce back when they travel to face Eleven Wonders, while Young Apostles continue their road stretch with a trip to Vision FC.

Bibiani Gold Stars 1-0 Aduana FC

Bibiani Gold Stars extended their formidable home record with a narrow 1-0 victory over Aduana FC at Dun’s Park on Sunday, tightening the race at the top of the Premier League table.

Samuel Atta Kumi delivered the decisive moment in the 16th minute, confidently converting a penalty after Aduana conceded a foul in the box. The goal proved enough to secure all three points for the defending champions.

The win lifts Gold Stars into the top four, as they continue their push to defend their title.

Aduana, who began the weekend at the summit, struggled to find their attacking fluency and have now slipped to third place.

Both teams now shift focus to crucial upcoming fixtures, Gold Stars travel to face Samartex, while Aduana return to Dormaa to take on an in-form Basake Holy Stars.

Heart of Lions 0-0 Karela United

Heart of Lions are joint top of the Premier League table after being held to a goalless draw by a resolute Karela United on Sunday.

The hosts, who had won all five previous home matches this season, were frustrated by a disciplined Karela side in a tightly contested first half that produced few clear chances.

Both teams made changes after the break in search of a breakthrough, and the second half delivered an intense battle. Lions nearly snatched all three points late on, only to be denied by the crossbar in the dying moments.

Despite dropping their first home points of the season at the Kpando Sports Stadium, Heart of Lions remain second on 23 points—same as  Medeama SC, who drew away a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 at Asante Kotoko.

Karela United stay 8th and will aim to return to winning ways when they host Hearts of Oak. Heart of Lions, meanwhile, shift their focus to a tough away fixture against Nations FC.

Berekum Chelsea 0-0 FC Samartex 1996

Berekum Chelsea and FC Samartex played out a lacklustre goalless draw in their Matchday 12 Premier League clash at the Golden City Park, with both sides showing signs of fatigue from their midweek FA Cup exertions.

Chelsea began brighter and enjoyed greater possession but failed to create any real threat in the final third. Samartex, solid and well-organised, limited the hosts to half-chances while goalkeeper Zakaria Musah had little to do.

Second-half substitutions from both benches aimed to inject life into the match, but neither side found the quality needed to break the deadlock.

The result leaves Chelsea stuck in 15th place, while Samartex remain comfortably in 7th.

Bechem United 1-2 Hohoe United

Hohoe United secured their first-ever Premier League away win with an impressive 2–1 triumph over Bechem United at the Nana Gyeabour Park on Sunday, deepening the hosts’ early-season struggles.

Bechem struck first through Augustine Okrah, but Hohoe’s Keke David turned the game on its head with two composed finishes, capitalising on defensive lapses to hand the visitors a historic victory. The home side had a chance to draw level from the penalty spot, but the missed opportunity only heightened frustration among their supporters.

The loss leaves Bechem United entrenched in the bottom three and in urgent need of a response as they prepare to face Dreams FC next.

Unbeaten in their last two matches, Hohoe United they head into their next clash against Asante Kotoko with growing confidence and momentum.
