ASHGOLD HOLD FAISAL (BACK PAGE, DEC 24)

Obuasi Ashgold and King Faisal shared the three points at stake when they settled for a 1-1 draw in their premier league match played at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium yesterday.
It was a match that the two teams, displayed abundant skills in ball control in the midfield and attack , but failed to take advantage of the numerous chances that came their way, causing their fans to shout at them on many occasions.
It was King Faisals’ Emmanuel Nsakie Odoi who managed to open the scores for his side in the 35th minute in a goal mouth melee to give the fans something to cheer about.
The goal gingered Faisal to carry the game to their opponents , causing the defence to retreat on most occasions but the home team failed to take advantage of the chances that came their way.
In the 43rd minute Ashgold succeeded in cancelling the lead through Owusu Sefa 
The visitors were awarded a free-kick outside the box and Sefa took advantage of the poor marking of a Faisal defender by leaping high to nod home a cross at the left flank .
The two teams continued to probe for goals afterwards, but failed to connect the begging chances that came their way with Enoch Ebo Andoh, and Prince Arko being the worst offenders for the home team, with Addo Adoquaye and substitute Theophilus Anobaah of Ashgold also breaking the hearts of their fans for failing to connect the chances that came their way.
