King Faisal displayed yet another brilliant performance on Match Day 7 of the Ghana Premier League as they pip Elmina Sharks by a lone goal to claim leaders of the Ghana Premier League table.

The ”Isha Alla” boys are yet to lose a game in the League so far this season.

A goal from Ibahim Osman match in the first half made the difference between as the Kumasi based club emerged victorious.

Ibrahim Osman who is on loan from Asante Kotoko missed the game against his club due to a clause in the loan agreement with King Faisal. He scored inside 27 minutes to give the Insha Allah boys a well-deserved lead after dominating play in the opening stages of proceedings.

Back from recess, Mawuli Wayo increased the tally for King Faisal in the 58th minute but his goal was disallowed for offside.

Elmina Sharks took over the game with Michelle Sarpong and Ato Mensah taking charge of the midfield and pressing for the equalizer but failed to make it count as King Faisal held on to win yet another home match at the Baba Yara stadium.

The win takes King Faisal to the top of the table with 16 points – three points ahead of Asante Kotoko who have a game in hand.
