In a stunning upset at the Naa Sheriga Sports Complex in Tamale, Real Tamale United dealt a significant blow to title contenders Nations FC on Wednesday afternoon.
The decisive goal, netted by midfielder Mohammed Iddriss in the 51st minute, sealed a narrow 1-0 victory for Real Tamale United.
Despite Nations FC entering the match on a four-game winning streak and being heavily favored against the bottom-placed side, Real Tamale United defied expectations, securing their second consecutive home win and extending their unbeaten home streak to five games.
The defeat will undoubtedly leave Nations FC disappointed, seeing it as a missed opportunity to capitalize on league leaders Samartex’s dropped points in their away match against Legon Cities.
With this result, Nations FC now finds themselves three points behind the league leaders, holding onto second place, while Real Tamale United remain anchored to the bottom of the table.
