Great Olympics moved to the top of the table with a 1-0 win over Medeama SC in this matchday 18 fixture of the 2020/21 Ghana Premier League.
Olympics won the tight encounter 1-0 courtesy of a first-half strike by Samuel Ashie-Quaye, with coach Annor Walker celebrating an important win over Yaw Preko, who was appointed as the capital-based club’s interim coach when Walker took a sick leave earlier this season.
Ashie-Quaye, a key member of Ghana's U-20 squad that won the recent Africa Cup of Nations tournament in Mauritania, scored the winning goal in the 39th minute. The left-back pounced on a fine pass, outpaced his marker and beat goalkeeper Ofori Antwi with a low shot.
Medeama huffed and puffed but could not salvage anything from the game due to Olympics' resolute defending.
Olympics, by virtue of the win, have overtaken Karela United at the top, however, the Aiyinase club have the chance to reclaim the position when they face AshantiGold at home on Sunday.
