Former Ghana youth star Awudu Issaka has congratulated Bofoakwa Tano after they secured promotion back to the Ghana Premier League after 16-years absence.
Bofoakwa Tano made a triumphant return to the Ghana Premier League after spending over a decade outside the top flight.
In a tense playoff match held on Tuesday at the Accra Sports Stadium, Bofoakwa defeated Techiman Eleven Wonders to secure their promotion.
The match ended 1-1 after regulation time, leading to a nail-biting penalty shootout. Bofoakwa emerged victorious, winning 7-6 in the shootout, and thus clinched their spot in the prestigious Ghana Premier League.
“Both teams showed great talent during the game. The perception that Ghana football has declined is a fallacy considering the performance of the two teams”
“Bofoakwa created a lot of chances and should have buried the game in the first half but they couldn’t. Eleven Wonders came into the second stronger and equalized, but I a whole, I will congratulate Bofoakwa Tano after beating Eleven Wonders on penalties to qualify back to the GPL” he said.
Bofoakwa Tano join Heart of Lions and Nations FC for next season’s Ghana Premier League campaign.
