In a highly competitive match on Sunday, Accra Lions faced Nations FC at the WAFA Park in Sogakope.
Relocated due to the closure of the Accra Sports Stadium, the Lions couldn’t capitalize on home advantage and suffered a narrow defeat.
The first half ended in a thrilling goalless draw, but in the 73rd minute, Brazilian midfielder Joe Silva de Santana scored his debut Premier League goal, securing Nations FC’s victory.
