Vision FC have secured qualification to feature in the Ghana Premier League for the first time in their history next season, following a hard-fought victory against Uncle T United on Sunday, June 2.

They defeated Uncle T United 2-1 on home turf to book qualification to the Ghanaian top-flight after winning Division One League Zone 3, with just a game to spare.

Vision FC needed a victory against Uncle T United FC at the Nii Adjei Kraku Sports Complex to affirm their promotion to the Ghanaian top flight.

Having triumphed over the Prampram-based club, Vision FC have earned promotion to the domestic top flight and are expected to participate in the 2024/25 campaign.

Putting on a stellar performance, Vision FC opened the scoring through talented winger Gideon Offei Ofori at the 41-minute mark, but the visitors pulled parity on the hour mark.

Seven minutes before full time, substitute Frank Duku stepped up to score the match-winner, handing Vision FC an all-important victory and cementing their qualification for the Ghana Premier League.

With one game left in the season, Vision FC are leading Zone Three with 55 points, followed by Hohoe United, who lie second with 51 points after a 2-0 win over Susubribi United FC.

Vision FC will travel to the Eastern Region next weekend to end their season with a game against the already relegated side, Susubribi United FC.
