With the headline game of matchday 7 between Hearts of Oak and Kotoko postponed, King Faisal grabbed the headlines after climbing to the top of the Ghana Premier League table.
The ‘Insha Allah’ lads had it all to play for at the Baba Yara Stadium as they eased past Elmina Sharks to move to the summit on the league log.
Eleven Wonders and Dreams got the matchday going after playing out a 1-1 draw in Techiman. Samuel Boakye’s late opener was cancelled out by Abass Ganiu to seal a point for the home side.
In a much anticipated game in Dormaa, Aduana Stars secured all three points against Accra Great Olympics to move to second on the league table. Prince Acquah scored the only goal of the game.
At the Dun’s Park, a well-taken strike from Prince Kwabena Owusu was enough for Bibiani Gold Stars to beat Bechem United by a goal to nil.
Karela United were ruthless against newly-promoted Accra Lions, beating them with a 3-0 scoreline at the Crosby Awuah Memorial Park.
Legon Cities were held to a goalless draw at the El-Wak Stadium against Berekum Chelsea while WAFA suffered a home defeat in their encounter with AshantiGold.
Patrick Kofi Ansu got the match decider when Medeama faced Real Tamale United in Tamale.
As things stand, King Faisal occupy the top position in the standings with 16 points, two more than Aduana who sit in second, while Kotoko, with a game in hand are in third position with 13 points.
