Nations FC Stunned by Berekum Chelsea in First-Ever Home Defeat
Nations FC suffered their maiden home loss in the Ghana Premier League, falling 1-0 to Berekum Chelsea in a tightly contested matchday 12 encounter at the Kwame Kyei Sports Complex in Abrankese on Sunday.
The game’s pivotal moment came in the 18th minute when Stephen Amankona confidently slotted home a penalty for Berekum Chelsea.
Heading into the game, Nations FC were riding high on a four-game winning streak and held the top spot in the league. However, their momentum was abruptly halted as Chelsea executed a resolute defensive strategy to preserve their advantage.
The victory marked a significant turnaround for Berekum Chelsea, who had struggled in recent weeks with no wins in their previous four matches, including three losses and a draw. The much-needed win boosts their morale and league standing.
Nations FC are now second on the league log while Chelsea remain ninth.
