FC AshantiGold 04 achieved a narrow 1-0 victory over FC Samartex 1996 in the Ghana Premier League's Matchday Six clash at the Len Clay Stadium in Obuasi. The winning goal came from a penalty kick in the 15th minute, executed by Raphael Ankamah, who put the home side ahead. Despite Samartex controlling possession, especially in the second half, they failed to capitalize on their opportunities due to AshantiGold's resilient defense.

AshantiGold, who had recently defeated Heart of Lions 3-2, strengthened their home record with this 18th consecutive unbeaten league match at the Len Clay Stadium. Samartex, one of the campaign's early unbeaten teams, had to reflect on their inability to convert possession into goals. The result marked a positive response for AshantiGold, who continued their strong home form in the league.
