Sunyani: Visiting Swedru All Blacks beat Bofoakwa Tano 2-1 in their played at the Sunyani Coronation Park.

All Blacks put the home support of Bofoakwa behind them played a determined gamewere up by a goal in the first half.

The visitors gave every indication that they were in for a kill right from the commencement of the game on the orders of referee J.K. Agbeko of Kumasi.

They however wasted an early chance at goal when Kwaku Kyere failed to utilise a beautiful pass from the left flank.

Immediately after that Bofoakwa's Osei Kwame was also on target but woefully wasted it.

Fortunes continued to sway until in the 11th minute when inside left Kwaku Kyere scored for All Blacks.

A high ball landed right in front of Kyere and notwithstanding the stiff opposition from "Disco" Nana Gyamfi of Bofoakwa, Kyere managed to run with the ball and shot into the net with goalkeeper Damba Mohammed looking on.

Urged on by their supporters, Bofoakwa counter attacked but wasted all scoring chances that came their way till the end of the first half.

Back from recess Bofoakwa maintained pressure on their opponents but like the first half, their attackers squandered all the begging chances.

The visitors had their second goal through Adom in the 67th minute before Bofoakwa pulled one back through a penalty kick scored expertly converted by Kwami Antwi in the 83rd minute.
