Nations FC began their Ghana Premier League campaign on a winning note after edging Swedru All Blacks 2-1 in a dramatic opener at the Dr. Kwame Kyei Sports Complex on Sunday.
The visitors, making their first topflight appearance in 15 years, struck first in the 13th minute through captain Kweku Asuandze Baffoe.
But Nations FC fought back strongly, with Samuel Tetteh equalising in the 57th minute.
Just when the match looked set to end in a draw, Emmanuel Annor popped up in the 95th minute to hand the home side all three points.
The result gives Nations FC an early boost in their title charge, while Swedru All Blacks will have to regroup quickly for their next game against Berekum Chelsea.
