Striker Francis Kwofie scored the winner when he put Miners ahead in the 116th minute of the game at the Baba Yara Stadium.
Coach Yaw Acheampong who was Captain of the then Obuasi Goldfields when they won the cup competition in 1993 hopes to repeat the feat of winning the tournament again, this time as Coach.
“As a player I won my first FA Cup title with the then Obuasi Goldfields where I was the skipper, so my dream now is to win now that I’m a coach of the team.
I’m so happy because tactically the guys played to my instructions”.he told JOY Sports
The other semi-final date is yet to be confirmed as New Edubiase await the winner for the other quarter-final between Wassaman United and Tema Youth FC which was abandoned on June 10 as a result of crowd violence.
The matter is before the Disciplinary Committee of the Ghana Football Association.
