· GhanaSoccernet

Medeama SC delivered a commanding statement in the title race with a resounding 4–0 victory over fierce rivals Asante Kotoko, powered by a scintillating brace from Salim Adams at the Tarkwa and Aboso Stadium on Sunday.

The Mauve and Yellow were relentless from the outset, showcasing both attacking precision and defensive solidity in a performance that underlined their title credentials in the Ghana Premier League.

Medeama took an early lead in the 14th minute when Manuel Mantey’s effort took a decisive deflection off Henry Ansu, wrong-footing the goalkeeper and setting the tone for the afternoon. The hosts doubled their advantage in the 29th minute, with Kelvin Obeng rising highest to power home a header, leaving Kotoko struggling to contain the waves of pressure.

Just before halftime, Adams opened his account, calmly finishing from close range to give Medeama a commanding 3–0 lead at the break. Any hopes of a Kotoko response were swiftly extinguished early in the second half, as Adams struck again five minutes after the restart, sealing his brace and capping off a dominant display that earned him Man of the Match honors.

The emphatic victory propels Medeama back to the summit of the league standings, two points clear of defending champions Bibiani Gold Stars, with just five matches remaining.

As the season hurtles toward its climax, the title race is finely poised and promises a dramatic finish. Medeama’s latest performance not only strengthens their grip at the top but also sends a clear warning to their closest challengers: the race for the crown will go right down to the wire.
