ADUANA NOW ON TOP (PAGE 55, JAN 11, 2010)

Newcomers Dormaa Ahenkro based-Aduana Stars under Coach Herbert Addo on Saturday kept their unbeaten home record intact when the curtain was drawn on the first round of the Glo premier league. They defeated visiting Obuasi Ashgold by a lone goal at the Nana Agyeman Badu Sports Stadium at Dormaa-Ahenkro.
 The only goal of the match which enabled the homesters to secure the maximum three points at stake was scored by Kwame Frimpong, the leading marksman of Aduana Stars, on the 12th minute of the first half through a goal mouth melee.
 Right from the blast of the whistle of Tema-based Class One Referee, Patrick Assisah, both teams exhibited good play but it was the visitors who dominated in ball possession but failed to convert that into a goal till the homesters took advantage of a goal mouth scramble in the early minutes of the game to win the day.
 In a post match interview, Coach Addo told the Daily Graphic Sports that he was going to secure the services of two prolific and experienced strikers to enhance the goal scoring ability of the team when the second round resumes.
 He noted that goal scoring had been the problem of the team and hoped that when that was done the team would spring a surprise in the elite division this season.
