Bibiani Goldstars edged closer to the Ghana Premier League title race after a narrow 1-0 victory over Young Apostles on matchday 27.
The decisive moment came at the stroke of halftime, when Alex Aso found the back of the net to separate the two sides.
The result sees the Miners extend their impressive unbeaten home run, drawing level on 47 points with Asante Kotoko, who sit ahead only by virtue of a superior goal difference.
It was a perfect response for Coach Frimpong Manso’s side after their disappointing 2-0 loss to Dreams FC in their previous outing.
Young Apostles showed glimpses of promise and threatened an upset, but GoldStars executed their game plan to perfection, keeping the visitors at bay throughout the contest.
The Premier League debutants have now managed just one win in their last seven games, a poor run that leaves them in 13th place with 30 points.
They will look to bounce back quickly when they host Berekum Chelsea in their next fixture.
Meanwhile, Bibiani GoldStars are eyeing top spot as they prepare for a crucial away trip to Bechem United, hoping to pile more pressure on league leaders Asante Kotoko.
