Elsewhere, defending champions, Accra Hearts of Oak laboured once again, and were beaten at the Obuasi Len Clay, 2-0 by Ashgold SC.

Second-half goals from Yaw Annor and Abdul Salam were enough to sink Hearts of Oak, who now have their first defeat of the season after consecutive draws.

Abdul Fatawu Issahaku scored a brace for Dreams FC but they threw away a 3-0 advantage to draw 3-3 with Accra Great Olympics on Saturday afternoon.
