Match Report: AshantiGold 1-0 Wa All Stars - Yakubu Mohammed wins tie for Miners

Premier League leaders AshantiGold kept their title ambitions on track with a narrow 1-0 win over Wa All Stars at the Len Clay Stadium in Obuasi on Saturday afternoon. 

Former Maritzburg United attacker Yakubu Mohammed scored 9th minute penalty after Bernard Morrison had been fouled inside the box.

The Miners returned to the Len Clay Stadium after frustrating Hearts of Oak to a 2-2 draw at the Accra Sports Stadium on Monday afternoon.
