2019/20 GPL: Sharks draw blank in WAFA stalemate

Elmina Sharks fired blanks once again in their 2019/20 Ghana Premier League match-day 3 clash with WAFA SC on Sunday.

The fearsome Sharks could not swallow the Academy Boys at the Nduom Sports Stadium as both teams settled for a barren draw.

Elmina Sharks, after failing to secure 3 points against Karela United last weekend. were poised to beat WAFA.

The hosts started the game on a brighter note with maximum possession coming close to getting the first goal with a chance from Benjamin Boateng but misses the goal post.

Suraj Ibrahim, who missed the last game due to suspension, was given the nod to start at right-back as Coach Yaw Acheampong making some changes in his starting line-up. Raphael Ocloo, Benjamin Tweneboah and Emmanuel Addington combined beautifully on various occasions but still lacked the accuracy to put Sharks ahead.

The second half continued with high momentum from both sides the same as the first half with both teams coming close to scoring.

WAFA had the best of chances in the game but they were not efficient enough to bang in the goals.

The game ended goalless after 90minutes with pressure piling of Sharks head coach Yaw Acheampong who side is yet to win a game.

Elmina Sharks skipper Benjamin Tweneboah won the NASCO man-of-the-match award, his second this season.

The draw leaves Elmina sharks 14th on the league table with two points. They next face Inter Allies at the Accra Sports Stadium.
