In a crucial matchday 32 fixture at the Theater of Dreams, Legon Cities compounded Bofoakwa Tano’s relegation concerns with a narrow victory on Saturday, June 1, 2024.
The decisive moment came in the 30th minute when Mohammed Alidu’s remarkable strike put Legon Cities ahead. Alidu’s skillful play saw him loft the ball over goalkeeper Emmanuel Kobi, finding the back of the net and giving Legon Cities the lead.
Despite a closely contested first half, Legon Cities managed to maintain their one-goal advantage throughout the match, securing all three points.
With this victory, Legon Cities moved up to 9th place on the league table with 44 points, strengthening their position in the premier league and edging closer to securing their spot for next season.
However, the loss deepens Bofoakwa Tano’s relegation worries, as they remain in 17th position with 33 points. Bofoakwa Tano has struggled away from home, failing to secure a single win outside the Sunyani Coronation Park.
With their survival hopes dwindling, Bofoakwa Tano faces an uphill battle to avoid relegation. Their next match at home against Berekum Chelsea will be crucial in their quest for points.
Meanwhile, Legon Cities will face Heart of Lions in their upcoming away fixture as they aim to continue their positive momentum in the league.
