Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>Accra Lions midfielder Abass Samari has been named Man of the Match in his side’s pulsating goalless draw against Aduana Stars on matchday 30 of the Ghana Premier League.<\/p>\n

The central midfielder was outstanding for the Accra-based side as he controlled the midfield, with Aduana Stars struggling to contain him.<\/p>\n

Samari was close to getting a goal in the opening minutes before his corner kick was met by forward Seidu Basit, with the latter’s goal-bound header cleared off the line.<\/p>\n

Accra Lions started the game the better of the two sides, and came close twice in the opening ten minutes after Hagan Frimpong and Abass Samari had chances to open the scoring.<\/p>\n

Frimpong was sent through by Daniel Awuni and had only Aduana goalie Massawudu Inusah to beat by his effort hit the side net. Moments later Samari saw his effort clear by Aduana’s defence.<\/p>\n

The host kept on piling the pressure and from a corner kick, Seidu Bassit’s header was clear off the line by Hafiz Adams.<\/p>\n

Aduana Stars gradually started to get into the game with Manaf Mudasiru and Samuel Bioh trying from afar. Bioh took advantage of a slip in the box by Jacob Mensah but wasted the opportunity to break the deadlock.<\/p>\n

Rashid Abubakar of Accra Lions had the last chance from a freekick but his strike hit then wall.<\/p>\n

After the break Accra Lions took charge of the game again, Basit rose high to meet a cross from Abass Samari before second half substitute Fredrick Asante pulled a save from Massawudu Inusah.<\/p>\n
