Heart of Lions boosted their chances of extending their stay in the Premier League after recording a 2-0 win over Legon Cities at the Kpando Sports Stadium on Sunday, June 9, 2024.
A goal in either half by Christian Agyenim Boateng and Ebenezer Abban gave Lions huge hopes of avoiding relegation after a difficult start to the season. Boateng broke the deadlock in the 40th minute for the hosts, who went into the break with a slender lead.
After the recess, Abban provided the cushion they craved, netting his team’s second goal in the 59th minute following dominant play. The win moves Bashiru Hayford’s side to 11th on the league standings, level on 44 points with the visitors.
Legon Cities, now in 12th position, have struggled with their poor away form this season. For their final game, Lions will travel to face Berekum Chelsea, while Legon Cities will host Gold Stars.
