Bibiani GoldStars produced a spirited performance to secure a 3-1 victory over Heart of Lions in their Ghana Premier League Week 6 encounter at the Dun’s Park on Monday afternoon.
Coming into the game on the back of two straight league defeats, the Miners were under pressure to deliver in front of their home fans - and they did just that with an impressive all-round display.
GoldStars took control of proceedings midway through the first half and deservedly opened the scoring in the 38th minute through Richard Amon Kotey, who reacted quickest inside the box to slot home after sustained pressure from the hosts.
Moments after the restart, forward Sampson Eduku doubled the advantage with a composed finish, putting the Miners firmly in command.
Lions, however, refused to go down quietly, and former Hearts of Oak striker Kwadwo Obeng Junior pulled one back for the visitors in the 59th minute to spark hopes of a comeback.
But GoldStars remained resilient and restored their two-goal cushion late in the game when substitute Samuel Atta Kumi drilled home a fine effort eight minutes from time to seal the victory.
The result marks GoldStars’ second win of the campaign and a timely response to recent setbacks, while it ends Lions’ unbeaten start to the 2025-26 season.
The Miners will now look to build on this momentum as they continue their climb up the league table.
