Matchday 19 of the ongoing 2025/26 Ghana Premier League wrapped up across the country with a mix of tight contests, surprise results and significant implications at both ends of the table.
Action began on Friday at the University of Ghana Stadium, where Hearts of Oak were held to a goalless draw by Dreams FC. A similar outcome was recorded at Dun’s Park, as Bibiani GoldStars and Asante Kotoko cancelled each other out in a 0-0 stalemate.
At the Nii Adjei Kraku II Sports Complex, Vision FC fell 2-1 to league leaders Medeama SC. Faruk Mohammed gave the hosts a first-half advantage, but Medeama turned the game around after the break, with Salim Adams scoring twice to maintain their grip at the summit.
Sunday’s fixtures produced more decisive results. Basake Holy Stars claimed a 2-1 victory over Bechem United at the AAK II Park. Prince Opoku opened the scoring in the 16th minute before Simba Sylvester doubled the lead before halftime. Bechem United pulled one back through Augustine Okraku after the interval, but it proved only a consolation.
Berekum Chelsea’s struggles continued at the Golden City Park, where they were held to a 0-0 draw by Swedru All Blacks, extending their poor run of form. Heart of Lions, however, ended an eight-game winless streak with a narrow 1-0 home win over relegation-threatened Eleven Wonders, thanks to Ishmael Addo’s 33rd-minute strike.
At the Aliu Mahama Stadium, Karela United suffered a 1-0 defeat to FC Samartex. After a goalless first half, Christian Agyenim Boateng’s 51st-minute effort sealed all three points for the Timber Boys.
Young Apostles and Hohoe United shared the spoils in a dramatic 2-2 draw at the Wenchi Sports Stadium. Anane Keke David opened the scoring for the visitors in the 19th minute before Emmanuel Kyeremeh responded with a quick double to turn the game around. Richmond Opoku pulled one back for Hohoe United before the break, and Emmanuel Kyeremeh later equalised in the second half to ensure both sides settled for a point apiece.
At the Dr Kwame Kyei Sports Stadium, Aduana FC’s title ambitions suffered a setback following a 1-0 home defeat to Nations FC. Joseph Effah scored the decisive goal to hand Nations a crucial away victory.
After Matchday 19, Medeama SC lead the standings, followed by Bibiani GoldStars, Aduana FC and Asante Kotoko in the top four. At the opposite end of the table, Berekum Chelsea, Hohoe United and Eleven Wonders remain in the relegation zone.
