Published on: 21 June 2015

Ghana Premier League leaders AshantiGold kept their league title ambitions in the right lane with a heavy 4-1 drubbing of relegation-trapped Brong Ahafo United at the Len Stadium in Obuasi on Sunday.

AshantiGold went into the game with revenge on their minds against the relegation-threatened side and their determination propelled them to a comfortable lead.

First, United goalkeeper Lawrence Osei was penalized for dragging down Bernard Morrison inside the box and Shaffiu Mumuni coolly converted on the 7th minute mark.

The Miners continued their assault on The Apostles as Bernard Morrison went on a count-attack in the 39th minute to score the second goal at the Len Clay Stadium with the few fans on attendance jubilating ecstatically in the stands.

AshantiGold allowed the second-half to travel for only 3 minutes before midfielder Francis Oduro grabbed the third goal for the host.

Sellom Djerado reduced the deficit for the Sunyani-based side.

But Tijani Joshua smashed the nail in United's coffin to wrap up a massive win for the home side who further tightened their grip on the league leadership status.
