After a slim first-half lead – Karela United equalised on the stroke of full time following a strike from Samuel Kumi in the 91st but his goal was short-lived after Ali Mohammed restored Accra Lions’ lead inside the 92nd minute.

The hosts sat back after the second goal and protected the lead until the full-time whistle.
