Faisal looked down but coach Andy Sinason’s men were certainly not out as skipper Kwame Peprah managed to pull one back with a penalty after the ball struck the hand of Berekum Chelsea’s Ushau Abu in his own area.
The hosts showed improvement in the second half and hit back again to further reduce the deficit to 3-2 through a sensational Frimpong Boateng drive from distance in the 56th minute.
Peprah then levelled things to 3-3 in the 79th minute and before completing his hat-trick with the match-winner for King Faisal with a finish from close range just a minute from time.
