FC Samartex produced a dominant performance to brush aside Basake Holy Stars 3-0 in their Ghana Premier League Round 29 encounter on Saturday afternoon at the Nsenkyire Sports Arena.
From the first whistle, Samartex looked the more composed side, controlling possession and creating chances.
Their early pressure paid off in the 17th minute when Baba Hamadu Musa broke the deadlock.
Latching onto a clever through ball, Musa calmly slotted the ball past the Holy Stars goalkeeper to give Samartex a deserved lead.
The home side doubled their advantage just eleven minutes later.
Emmanuel Mamah, who was a constant threat down the flank, cut inside and finished clinically to make it 2-0 in the 28th minute.
Holy Stars struggled to cope with Samartex’s intensity and failed to create any meaningful opportunities to threaten a comeback.
After the break, Samartex maintained their dominance.
Mamah completed his brace in the 71st minute, showing great composure inside the box after a swift team move. His second goal effectively ended the contest and sealed a comfortable afternoon for the hosts.
The win extends Samartex’s excellent home form and sees them solidify their position in the top half of the league table.
For Holy Stars, their miserable away record continues, having now gone nine straight away games without a victory.
