The northern region-based club played two games against Liberty Professionals, which they won by a solitary goal needing only a point in their last game against Ebusua Dwarfs.

In the final game against the Cape Coast-based club, they managed to 1-1 draw with them on Monday at the Accra Sports stadium.



Isaac Mensah shot his side in front through a carefully taken penalty in the 24th minute only to be pegged back by another penalty through opposition player, Richard Addai.
