Kankam Yeboah completed the task in the 64th minute as she slotted in a cross from Gifty Dwamena to seal the win for Faith Ladies. Police Ladies dominated proceedings from the 70th\u202f\u202fminute in search of a consolation goal but the Faith Ladies defense were up to the task with their goalkeeper, Bansah Anabel pulling some excellent saves.<\/p>\n

Police Ladies kept on possessing the ball till the final whistle was blown. Faith Ladies have now recorded their third win of the season with 11 points to their credit, two points ahead of Police Ladies.<\/p>\n
