Asante Kotoko secured a 2-0 win over Wa All Stars at Malik Jabir park to end their two-match winless run in the Ghana Premier League and lift themselves to the top four.
A goal in each half courtesy Obed Owusu and Frederick Boateng was all the Kumasi-based side needed to end a difficult few weeks which saw them go two matches without maximum points.
But for Wa All Stars, the defeat means they have now gone five games without a win. Their last victory coming against Berekum Chelsea on 1st April.
Kotoko's captain Obed Owusu led by example by opening the scoring on the stroke of half-time with a great finish.
The hosts fought hard to restore parity but Frederick Boateng scored in 90th minute to seal victory.
Kotoko coach Paa Kwesi Fabin, who has come under a lot of fire, will hope this win spur his team on to achieve their target of winning the league this season.
An away win that we needed.

Our captain led the way with quick reaction and headed us infront. The team held on resolutely seeking to take another chance and at the every end Frederick Boateng notched a second.
We soldier on, we seek to improve.#AKLIVE
