GPL Highlights: Berekum Chelsea stun Asante Kotoko with a 1-0 win

Berekum Chelsea on Sunday afternoon put up a fine display that saw the team defeating Asante Kotoko by a goal to nil in the Ghana Premier League.

The Porcupine Warriors suffered a 1-0 defeat on home turf in matchday 30 of the ongoing Ghanaian top-flight league.

The two teams played a pulsating goalless draw in the first half but after the break, it was Berekum Chelsea who looked purposeful as they grabbed the match opener through Kelvin Obeng in the 80th minute.

Down to ten-men in the 67th minute, the Bibires never stopped fighting in the bid of picking the maximum points at away to better their chances of maintaining their status in the league.
