Sulemana Nafiu scored a stunning goal for Nations FC as they eased past Asante Kotoko 2-0 at the Abrankese Stadium in the Ghana Premier League.
The hosts were seeking their fifth straight victory, and it took them 15 minutes to score.
Nafiu unleashed a brilliant curler from the left flank, to beat Kotoko goalkeeper Frederick Asare and put Nations ahead.
The goalscorer turned assist provider with a lovely piece of skill to wriggle away from his markers before providing a cross for Emmanuel Annor to tap home on the stroke of halftime.
Nations FC held on firmly to secure all three points and move up to second on the table with 51 points.
Up next for Kassim Mingle's side is a trip to face Berekum Chelsea.
Meanwhile, Kotoko have now suffered back-to-back defeats and are winless in their last four.
Their title charge is slipping away from their grasp as they sit fourth with 47 points.
The Porcupines will hope to return to winning ways at home against Aduana FC.
