Bibiani Goldstars secured a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Nations FC at Dun’s Park on Sunday, keeping their Ghana Premier League title hopes alive.
The win sees them remain second in the standings, level on 37 points with leaders Asante Kotoko.
The match was a tense battle, with both sides struggling to create clear-cut chances in the first half. Goldstars controlled possession but found it difficult to break down a disciplined Nations FC defence.
The decisive moment came in the 69th minute when Michael Nkoah rose highest to head home from a well-delivered corner, sending the home crowd into celebration.
Nations FC pressed for an equalizer but lacked the cutting edge in the final third, slipping to their third straight defeat—a setback that drops them to fifth place and puts their top-four hopes under threat.
For Goldstars, this crucial win ensures they remain firmly in the title race, keeping pace with Kotoko as the battle for supremacy in the Ghana Premier League intensifies.
