David Gyamfi Junior named Man of the Match in AshantiGold draw

AshantiGold attacker David Gyamfi Junior has been named the Man of the Match following a goalless draw against Semper Fi. The match took place at the Obuasi Len Clay Stadium during the 2026 X1 DOL Super Cup.

Although neither side could find the back of the net, Gyamfi Junior was recognized for his individual performance. He maintained consistent pressure on the Semper Fi defensive line, which was forced to defend for significant portions of the game. His ability to challenge the opposition's backline was the standout feature of the encounter.

This recognition represents the first time Gyamfi Junior has received a Man of the Match honour in the X1 DOL Super Cup. The result also provided AshantiGold with their first point of the tournament, following a loss in their opening fixture against Nsuopon Fidelity. After failing to secure a result in their first outing, the team has now managed to move onto the scoreboard in terms of points.

AshantiGold must now focus on their final Group B match against Tamale City. They require a result in that game to secure qualification for the next round of the competition. The team remains in contention for progression, but the upcoming fixture against Tamale City will be decisive for their tournament survival.

With the group stage nearing its conclusion, the pressure remains on the AshantiGold squad to improve upon their recent form. Having moved from zero points to one point following the draw with Semper Fi, the margin for error in their final group game is minimal.
