Medeama SC handed Ashantigold their second defeat of the season after Kwasi Donsu scored from the spot in the final minutes of the game to seal the victory for the home side.
The Miners went into the game hoping to return to winning ways after defeat to Eleven Wonders in midweek.
Midfielder Justice Blay broke the deadlock for the Mauve’s and Yellow in the 26th minute after heading in a Justice Blay corner.
However, the Miners did not lose their shape after conceding the goal and quickly replied through Roland Djodji on the 36th minute of the game.
The two sides went in to the break on level terms. Medeama SC came from recess with the hope of punishing the ten-man visitors but Coach Charles Akunnor made some astute changes by bringing on Daniel Goza to lead the line, which the former Amidaus Professionals forward did to perfection. The home side took charge if the game in the second stanza.
Medeama were awarded a spot kick by referee Charles Bulu after he adjudged that defender Osei Agyemang had handled the ball in the box, which Kwasi Donsu stepped up to slot home the winner for the Mauve’s.
