Heart of Lions kept their Ghana Premier League title ambitions alive with a vital 2-1 victory over Bechem United at the Kpando Sports Stadium on Sunday.
The Kpando-based club delivered a solid performance, taking control of the match early on. Kwesi Pong opened the scoring, giving the home side a deserved lead. Seedorf Asante doubled the advantage shortly after, putting Lions in a commanding position.
Bechem United managed to pull one back late in the game, but it was too little, too late to change the outcome. The result sees Heart of Lions move up to 58 points—just three behind league leaders Nations FC.
The win sets the stage for a thrilling final-day showdown between Lions and Nations FC. A victory for Lions in that match would bring them level on points with the current leaders. The title could then be decided by goal difference, depending on results elsewhere.
Heart of Lions have shown strong form in recent weeks, losing just once in their last five matches. With momentum on their side, they head into the final weekend full of belief and determination.
Bechem United, on the other hand, are no longer in contention for the title. They will wrap up their season at home against Young Apostles and aim to secure a top-half finish.
