Survival hopes fade for Dwarfs

Cape Coast Ebusua Dwarfs’ hopes of staying in the 2013/2014 First Capital Plus Premier League took a jolt on Wednesday, April 23 when the team went 0-1 down to Berekum Chelsea.

In other results, leaders and champions Asante Kotoko were beaten 1-3 by Wa All Stars in a home match played at the Tamale Sports Stadium.

Hearts of Oak also went down by three unanswered goals to Sekondi Hasaacas at the Essipon Stadium.

Liberty Professionals beat Amidaus Professionals 2-1 while AshantiGold SC shared the spoils with King Faisal at the Len Clay Stadium in Obuasi. It ended 0-0.

Debutants Inter Allies’ revival continued through midweek as their 1-0 win over New Edubiase lifted them to sixth on the log with just four points separating them and second-placed Heart of Lions, who have an outstanding match with Medeama SC.

The next round of matches will be played on Wednesday, April 30.
