Aduana FC delivered an impressive display to defeat Asante Kotoko 2-0 at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in their opening match of the Ghana Premier League season. Despite playing with 10 men for more than half the game, Aduana demonstrated strong defensive organization and clinical finishing, securing a significant victory. Stephen Amankona opened the scoring in the seventh minute after a mistake by Kotoko goalkeeper Ibrahim Danlad.

However, their lead was swiftly cut in the second half when Raymond Agyemang was sent off after accumulating two yellow cards within a span of five minutes. Despite being a man down, Aduana remained composed and frustrated Kotoko, who failed to create any clear opportunities. Seidu Saana sealed the win in the final moments of the match with a well-placed shot, following a counter-attack.

This result marks Aduana's first win and gives them seven points from their first four matches, while Kotoko suffered their first defeat of the season. The win showcases the tactical mastery of Aduana's coach, Samuel Boadu, as they look ahead to their next league clash against AshantiGold, while Kotoko will aim to recover against Young Apostles.
