Vipers make bright start in Division One League

Cape Coast, Sept. 26, GNA - Cape Coast Venomous Vipers made a bright start in the Division One League when they beat Abura Dunkwa Metro Stars 2-1 in their encounter at the Robert Mensah Sports Stadium at the week-end.

Vipers took an early lead through midfielder Aminu Bukari in the 10th minute when they launched an early attack on their opponents. They continued to dictate the pace of the game and it came as no surprise when a hard pressed defender of Metro Stars handled the ball in the penalty box which Bukari converted in the 40th minute to increase his side's goal tally to two.

After conceding the two goals, Metro Stars resumed the second half strongly and with determination as they took control of the game and rightly reduced the scores through a spot kick in the 70th minute which was taken by centre half, Hans Koufie.

Results of the other league matches gathered by the GNA Sports were, Cape Coast Mysterious Dwarfs lost 2 - 3 to Tarkwa Real United, Wise Fighters beat Odupong Heroes 3 96 2 while Samartex also beat Winneba Windy Professionals 3 - 2.
