RTU sink deep into relegation zone

Bekwai, May 29, GNA - New Edubiase United sent Real Tamale United (R= TU) deep into the relegation zone when they pipped them 1-0 in their last but one Glo Premier League match played at the Ashanti-Bekwai Gyamfi Park on Sunday.

The only goal of the match which was scored in the 15th minute by Edubiase came in the first half from a Stephen Manu's spot kick. RTU, led by Taufic Alolo played their hearts out but try as they did all their efforts at scoring fizzled out as they failed to find the net up to the end of the first half.

The 91Pride of North' came back from the recess full of fight as th= ey earned several corner kicks but they still could not utilize any of the chances that came their way to at least get the equalizer. The game from the 70th minute became a ding dong affair with the ball swinging from one end to the other until referee J.O. Lamptey brought proceedings to an end to send RTU into relegation since their entry into th= e elite division in 1978.
