GPL: Legon Cities defeat Eleven Wonders to escape relegation

Date:

To ensure they escaped relegation, Legon Cities FC on Sunday afternoon put up an impressive fight to defeat Techiman Eleven Wonders 3-2.

Legon Cities FC, popularly known as The Royals struggled in the first round of the 2020/2021 Ghana Premier League (GPL)season.

On the back of a change in managers to bring in coach Bashir Hayford, the Legon Cities FC team managed to turn things around for the better in the second round.

But, with the manager being replaced in the last few weeks with coach Maxwell Konadu, poor results meant that they risked being relegated.

Legon Cities FC, needing a win to ensure they are not relegated, unfortunately, trailed to Eleven Wonders in Sunday’s match after just seven minutes of play when George Amponsah scored for the visitors.

Although the home team will draw level in the 33rd minute through Francis Addo, Ganiu Abass equalized for Eleven Wonders to send the team into the break with a 2-1 lead.

The team fortunately found its rhythm in the second half and scored through Hans Kwofie and Anim Cudjoe to come from behind to win 3-2.

As a result, the team finishes in 13th and hence escapes relegation.
