But Chelsea responded three minutes to halftime with Stephen Amankonah scoring a penalty.

The Sogakope lads scored the winner in the 48th minute through Issah Basit. The forward left unmarked at the far post beat goalkeeper Obeng Sekyere.

The result sees WAFA now four points adrift of the top while Berekum Chelsea are five points above relegation zone.
