Sarpong’s cool finish on the 64th minute of the match was the first to be scored in the new season to make history for himself after a difficult season at Hearts last campaign.

Accra Lions FC struck back to make sure spoils were shared in the season opening game when star boy Rauf Salifu pounced on a poor goalkeeping to snatch a point for the new comers on the 83rd minute mark.
