MTN FA Cup: Dreams, Sky fly high as King Faisal kicks Aduana out
The MTN FA Cup quarter-finals took a center stage across varied match venues in the country last weekend and ended with enthralling results.
Last Friday, two Premier League teams, Dreams FC and Legon Cities went head-to-head for a ticket to the semi-finals of the ongoing competition, an Ebenezer Addae goal deep into extra-time proved the match-winner to aid the host into their second successive semi-finals in two seasons.
The Aliu Mahama Sports Stadium hosted Real Tamale Untied and newly promoted side, Nsoatreman FC, who gave fans their monies worth but at the end of the referee’s whistle, the latter run off with the victory courtesy of a Philip Ofori goal in the first half of the game.
King Faisal progressed via a penalty shoot-out after a draw of 2-2 with Aduana Stars in regulation time.
