With Nations FC yet to kick off their matchweek 31 encounter away at Legon Cities in Accra on Monday, May 19, Bibiani Gold Stars move top of the league standings without kicking a ball.
Gold Stars by default were awarded three points after their opponent, Nsoatreman FC, withdrew from the Ghana Premier League (GPL).
Meanwhile, closest contenders, who appear to have given up on the title, Asante Kotoko, are now second in the league thanks to a resounding 4-1 win over their interim head coach’s former team, Dreams FC.
A Kwame Opoku brace and an Albert Amoah and Fernando Wisdom strikes ensured Jonathan Nemorden’s goal proved to be nothing but a consolation as Karim Zito and Kotoko walked away happy customers.
At the Golden City Park, Mawuli Wayo’s 57th-minute strike for Hearts of Oak stunned Berekum Chelsea and former Hearts head coach Samuel Boadu, as the visitors recorded a deserved win.
