#GPLwk5: Bibiani GoldStars beat Accra Lions in battle of newcomers

Bibiani GoldStars scored twice to beat fellow new entrants Accra Lions 2-0 at Dun’s Park on match-day five of the 2021/22 Ghana Premier League (GPL).

Michael Osei’s men had to win after failing to record a win in their last two games against Asante Kotoko and Elmina Sharks.

An entertaining opening half produced no goal despite both sides creating some food chances.

But GoldStars would break the deadlock right after the restart. Frank Adjei Junior unleashed a rocket from long range that Frederick Asare could do nothing about.

Striker Prince Kwabena Owusu then justified his return to the GoldStars starting line-up with his second successive goal in the campaign on 71 minutes.

GoldStars held on to make it a second win in three home games in the topflight so far.

Frank Adjei Junior was adjudged NASCO man-of-the-match.

Bibiani GoldStars are in 6th position with 7 points while Accra Lions find themselves 16th in the GPL standings after five matches.
