Ten-man AshantiGold managed to hold Berekum Arsenal to a 1-1 draw at the Golden City Park on Sunday.
Youngster Aaron Amoah opened the scoring for the Miners in the 7th minute but Stephen Amankwah converted a 35th minute penalty to ensure Arsenal escape defeat.
AshGold, who went into the fixture without head coach Croat coach Zdravko Logarusic, played with some unified purpose in the opening minutes.
Former Ghana Under-20 player Amoah scored from a powerful half volley in the 7th minute.
Amankwah drew Arsenal on level terms when he expertly dispatched a penalty ten minutes before the break.
AshGold's Ivorian import Didier Kore was sent off in added time for a silly challenge.
