Berekum Chelsea and FC Samartex settled for a goalless draw in their 2025/26 Ghana Premier League Week 12 fixture at the Golden City Park on Sunday, as both teams failed to lift the tempo after demanding midweek FA Cup outings.
Chelsea opened the match with greater urgency and controlled possession for long spells, but their dominance failed to translate into clear chances. Despite their efforts, the hosts struggled to break down a disciplined Samartex backline.
Samartex goalkeeper Zakaria Musah had little to do throughout the contest, with the visitors staying compact and absorbing Chelsea’s pressure comfortably. Their defensive organisation ensured that Musah remained largely untested.
Both coaches rang the changes in the second half, hoping to inject energy and creativity into their attacks. But the substitutions did little to alter the rhythm of a match that lacked cutting edge in the final third.
In the end, neither side could find the breakthrough, leaving the points to be shared after a subdued affair.
The result keeps Berekum Chelsea in 15th place as their struggles continue, while Samartex remain steady in 7th position on the league table.
