Frimpong Boateng's half-volley found the back of the net to put Faisal in the lead in the 44th minute.

After recess, Kwame Nana Junior levelled for Nsoatreman on 55 minutes but Samuel Adom Antwi restored Faisal's lead in the 64th minute which was enough to earn them a spot in the final.

"I'm very very happy because when we went to the press conference I told them something and they have made me proud. They've made it for me," the former Ghana international told StarTimes after the game.

King Faisal will face Dreams FC in the final of the FA Cup scheduled to be played on June 17 2023.
