Great Olympics held Karela United at the Crosby Awuah Memorial Park to a 1-1 draw on matchday 27 fixture.

Diawisie Taylor scored his 16th goal of the season to the lead on the top scoring chart before the visitors pulled parity.

The draw keeps the Dade Boys in the title as they remain at 3rd position on the premiership standings, two points behind Hearts of Oak and Asante Kotoko SC who are 1st and 2nd.

Karela trainer Augustine Evans Adotey made only one alteration to the squad that held Berekum Chelsea to a 1-1 draw last week at the Golden City Park in Berekum.

Striker Maxwell Boakye paved way for midfielder Evans Sarfo to come into the starting lineup.

Annor Walker on the other hand made two changes to the Olympics team that pipped Inter Allies FC in the regional derby last week at the Accra Sports Stadium.

Samuel Abbey-Ashie Quaye and James Akaminko returned to the starting lineup replacing Michel Otou and Kwadwo Boateng respectively.

Taylor put the home side ahead as early as the 5th minute of the game through a spot kick.

Olympics levelled matters on the stroke of halftime with an intelligent strike from Abbey-Ashie Quaye following a beautiful run by central defender Razak Kasim.

The two teams tried to unlock each other defence to get the match winner but none of the efforts could result in a goal.
