Ghana Premier League: Medeama hold GoldStars to reclaim top spot

Medeama SC stretched their lead on top of the table by a point following a goalless draw at GoldStars in the delayed week 14 fixture of the Ghana Premier League on Wednesday.

The Mauve and Yellow were level on 30 points with Asante Kotoko prior to their trip to the Duns Park and settling for a stalemate brought them to 31 points with a game to close the first half of the season.

The two-time FA Cup winners walked into the game with a confident boosting 1-0 victory at Heart of Lions in week 16 and the result chalked at GoldStars increased their unbeaten streak to 13 in 16 matches.

Medeama have gone 13 games without a defeat

Medeama have clocked wins against tougher opponents like former champions Berekum Chelsea, 2023 CAF Confederation semifinalists Dreams FC and Nations FC with nerve-wracking draws against former champions Asante Kotoko and Aduana FC.

Their 31 points haul sees them one step above Asante Kotoko, two away from reigning champions GoldStars and Aduana and three adrift of Hearts of Oak.

Medeama coach Ibrahim Ibrahim Tanko will look to retain the top spot when he leads his charges against Hearts of Oak at the Tarkwa TnA Park in the final game of the first half of the season on Sunday, January 4.
