Bibiani Gold Stars came into the game after conceding the goal, but they couldn't restore the level before the break.

Albert Amoah extended the lead with individual brilliance in the 50th minute of the second half.

Kotoko defenders were tactically disciplined throughout the entire duration of the game and prevented Gold Stars from getting an equalizer.
