From the opening moments of the matchday 16 fixture, the Timber Giants asserted their dominance, setting the tone for a commanding performance.
Their efforts were rewarded just before halftime when forward Emmanuel Mamah unleashed a spectacular goal, putting Samartex in the lead.
Mamah, eager for more, nearly secured a second goal shortly after the break, narrowly missing as his shot struck the framework. The team continued to press forward, and midfielder Seidu Dauda Yussif extended the advantage with a powerful long-range strike.
In the 76th minute, Baba Hamadu Musa sealed the victory with a forceful header, connecting with a well-delivered cross from defender Francis Gyetuah.
With this triumphant display, Samartex reclaims the top spot in the league standings, amassing 29 points from 16 matches.
