DOL Super Cup: Accra Lions come from behind to beat Samartex in Group B opener

Published on: 14 October 2021

Newly promoted Ghana Premier League side, Accra Lions came from a goal down to beat Samartex in the Group B opener of the Division One League Super Cup. 

The Zone III winners had a slow start to the game at the Madina Astroturf and conceded early from an Emmanuel Adu second minute freekick.

But right-back Christopher Acheampong leveled with a thumping strike after Oliver Amedor laid the ball for the defender.

Lions, who were dominant in the first half were unlucky to go into the break at 1-1, as they failed to take most of their chances.

However, the Accra-based club continued their impressive display in the second half and with 21 minutes left, Evans Eenee pounced on a pass from strike partner Fredrick Asante.

Accra Lions will next play fellow new comers Real Tamale United on Saturday at the Madina Astroturf.

RTU will face Berekum Arsenal later on Tuesday afternoon.
