Medeama toppled as leaders after shock defeat to Liberty
Medeama were beaten 2-1 by Liberty Professionals at the T&A Park in Tarkwa.

Medeama were knocked off the summit of the Ghana Premier League table after a shock 2-1 home defeat to Liberty Professionals.

The Mauves and Yellows have missed a glorious chance to perhaps win their first Premier League game after weeks of occupying the topmost position.

Liberty shot into the lead through striker Ebenezer Assafuah who connected beautifully from an in-swinger to put the visitors in front in the 24 minutes.

Medeama who enjoyed the chunk of possession pulled level through Mohammed Tanko five minutes into the second half.

The equalizer was short-lived 13 minutes later as Mumuni Bawa stole the march of the home side with the match-winner.

The shock defeat has seen them being leapfrogged on the table after Berekumm Chelsea managed a 0-0 draw at New Edubiase.
