Prince Owusu Kwabena’s sublime curler from the edge of the box beat Richmond Ayi to give Gold Stars a solitary lead inside nine minutes.

The Bibiani lads held on until goalkeeper Joseph Baah was sent off for an off-the-ball incident that looked like an assault against Hearts of Oak striker Yassin Ouatching.

Gold Stars kept their composure by stopping the attackers of Hearts of Oak from functioning until substitute Isaac Mensah equalised from close range before in the 78th minute to restore some pride for the Phobians.

With just a few minutes to end proceedings, Gladson Awako scored the winner with a spectacular free kick in the 88th minute to give Hearts of Oak their first league victory of the season.

Elsewhere, Medeama SC were pegged back by former Champions Aduana Stars in a 1-0 loss at the Akoon Park at Tarkwa.

The win extends Aduana’s unbeaten as they have gone four matches without defeat.

The Ogya lads kicked off with a win against Hearts of Oak and King Faisal before coming from behind to draw 2-2 with Samartex on Matchday three.

Godfred Poku Wakii scored in the 20th minute to give them the three points, their third in the season.

New entrants Nsoatreman FC were big winners on match week as they romped to a 3-0 win against Karela United FC on Sunday.

Stephen Diyou netted in the 6th minute to give the hosts a well-deserved opener. Yakubu Mohammed added the second goal inside 33 minutes before Diyou got his brace and third goal of the match in the 68th minute for Nsoatreman.
