First half goals from Enoch Morrison and Rocky Dwamena powers Asante Kotoko to a vital 1-2 win over Samartex at the Nsenkyire Sports Arena on Saturday afternoon in match-week 22 of the Ghana Premier League
Richmond Lamptey committed a foul on the 7th minute at the edge of the box, Samartex swung in nicely in search for the opener but was checked by the visitors defence.
Quick response as George Mfegue does well to pick up Solomon Sarfo Taylor with a decent cross but couldn't reach out to that.
Another Samartex free kick on the 16th minute. Emmanuel Keyekeh with a fine delivery but was straight at goalkeeper Frederick Asare.
Finally, out of a great team move, Enoch Morrison scored to put the visitors in front on the 18th minute mark.
Few minutes after, Kotoko increased their tally through young sensation Rocky Dwamena- who scored to silence the home fans.
In the second half, the Porcupine Warriors returned with an immediate sad news after second goal scorer Rocky Dwamena had to leave the pitch after a reckless challenge on him.
The homesters subsequently won themselves a free kick of which Keyekeh crafted in a decent one but was tipped off by Asare to a wasted corner kick.
Samartex managed to get a goal for themselves on the 90th minute through Ebenezer Acquah who scored to reduce the deficit.
It ended 2-1 for Asante Kotoko after full time and have now jumped to the third position with 34 points.
