The Matchday 29 fixtures of the 2024/25 Ghana Premier League delivered drama, surprises, and crucial wins across various stadiums.
At the Accra Sports Stadium on Saturday, Accra Lions shocked the in-form Bechem United with a 2-0 victory. After a cagey first half, Jacob Awoute opened the scoring in the 48th minute, with Bernard Kesse sealing the result with a strike in the 78th minute.
Medeama SC continued their strong form at the TNA Park, dispatching Young Apostles 3-0. Defender Kamaradini Mamudu netted twice in the 17th and 26th minutes, before captain Fatawu Sulemana headed home a third just before halftime.
On Sunday, Asante Kotoko finally ended their four-game winless streak with a narrow 1-0 win over Aduana FC at the Baba Yara Stadium. Kwame Opoku’s 26th-minute goal proved decisive for the Porcupine Warriors.

Meanwhile, Karela United’s battle against relegation took a hit after a 2-1 home defeat to Dreams FC at the Aliu Mahama Stadium. Abdul Razak Salifu and Joseph Esso struck early for Dreams, with Karela managing only a consolation goal after the break.
At Golden City Park, Berekum Chelsea edged Nations FC 1-0, thanks to an in-form Stephen Amankona, who found the net in the 29th minute.
