Oly fall at Bechem

 Bechem United continued their resurgence in the Ghana Premier League after overcoming Great Olym­pics at the Nana Fosu Gyeabour Park in a thrilling match day eight betPawa Ghana Premier League encounter yesterday.

The Hunters claimed a 2-1 win to stretch their unbeaten streak to four matches (two wins and two draws).

Bismark Kobi-Mensah made only one change to the Bechem starting lineup that faced Asante Kotoko SC in the last round in Kumasi over the weekend.

Isaiah Nyarko came in for Clinton Duodu while Dari Aziz Haruna maintained his slot in the goalposts for the match.

On the other hand, Olympics Head Coach Annor Walker made no changes to the squad that pipped Nations FC at the Accra Sports Stadium last Saturday, maintaining the same 11.

But it was Bechem’s cult hero Augustine Okrah who got the breakthrough for the side in the 42nd minute as he put them ahead after connecting a pass from Abdul Karim.

Olympics drew level to make the match even in the 74th minute through versatile defender Samuel Abbey Ashie Quaye.

The Hunters retook the lead in the 81st minute when substitute Emmanuel Owusu found the back of the net. — Ghanasoccer­net.com
