Aduana FC secured a convincing 3-0 victory over Techiman Liberty Youth in the quarterfinals of the 2026 MTN FA Cup, a result that underlined their dominance and propelled them into the semifinals.
The goals came from Daouda Ben Sidibe, who opened the scoring in the 39th minute to give the Premier League side a crucial lead heading into halftime. The match remained tightly contested for much of the second half until Daouda Alex Boakyie doubled the advantage in the 81st minute, effectively sealing the outcome. Emmanuel Marfo then added a late flourish with a goal in stoppage time at 90+2′, capping off an emphatic performance at Nana Fosu Gyeabour Park.
As a established Ghana Premier League club and the 2018 league champions, Aduana entered the tie as clear favorites against their Division One opponents from Techiman Liberty Youth.
Their progress to this stage had already demonstrated real cup pedigree, having overcome formidable Premier League rivals Asante Kotoko in the round of 16 via a penalty shootout following a hard-fought goalless draw in regulation time.
That resilience against top-tier opposition only strengthened their credentials when facing lower-division sides, and they duly delivered a professional and clinical display to dispatch the underdogs without reply.
With this semifinal berth now confirmed, Aduana are firmly in contention to claim their first-ever MTN FA Cup title, an achievement that has so far eluded them despite their strong domestic pedigree. The win not only rewards their momentum in the competition but also positions them as serious contenders as the tournament reaches its decisive stages.
