Legon Cities Football Club have succeeded in ending their winless journey in the ongoing Ghana Premier League season. On Friday night, the Royals defeated WAFA SC 1-0 to record their first win.

The capital-based club in the past seven matches failed to score from open play. This winless run resulted in Serbian tactician Goran Barjaktarevic losing his job as head coach at some regard.

Going up against WAFA SC at the Accra Sports Stadium 8th January on matchday eight of the 2020/2021 season, Legon Cities FC put up a strong fight to break that unwanted record.

On the matchday, both teams excelled in the first half. But they could not find the back of the net at the end of the first half.

A minute into the second half, teenage attacker Mathew Anim Cudjoe was fouled in the WAFA SC 18-yard box. This resulted in a penalty kick.

With Joseph Adjei stepping up, he expertly converted to give Legon Cities FC the lead.

Although WAFA SC came in strong after going behind, they could not find the back of the net. And they suffered a narrow defeat at the end of the game.

Despite picking up the win, Legon Cities FC remains in danger of battling relegation zone. And they will need to keep working if they want to climb higher on the standings of the League.
