Bibiani Gold stars clinched their maiden Ghana Premier League title after a scintillating 4-0 home win over Accra Lions on the final day.
Gold Stars had one job: secure a win and hope Nations FC failed to match their result. They took to the task in style.
Head Coach Frimpong Manso opted for an attacking setup, signaling intent from the outset—and it paid dividends early. Just four minutes in, Abdul Farouk Amoaful opened the scoring with a composed close-range finish to give the Miners a dream start.
The pressure didn’t ease, and in the 19th minute, their dominance was rewarded again.
A fluid team move ended with Kelvin Oppong calmly slotting home their second, sending the DUNS Park crowd into raptures. The atmosphere only intensified when word filtered in from Abrankese: Nations FC, Gold Stars’ title rivals, were trailing at home to Heart of Lions.
The second half picked up right where the first left off, with Gold Stars continuing to threaten the Accra Lions' defense.
Around the hour mark, Manso made a tactical double change—goalscorer Amoaful and Justice Arthur made way for Godfred Arthur and Charles Kamara Gyamfi, aiming to maintain the attacking edge.
Then came the moment that electrified the stadium—a roar erupted as it was announced that Heart of Lions had doubled their lead against Nations FC.
Mere seconds later, Bibiani’s star forward Samuel Atta Kumi capped it off, firing home a third goal that all but sealed Gold Stars’ first-ever Ghana Premier League title.
Frimpong Manso’s side will have their highly impressive home form to thank for this historic feat, losing just once at the DUNS Park all season, with just 5 goals conceded in 17 games.
