Heart of Lions left it late to stun Medeama in a highly competitive Ghana Premier League clash on Sunday.

The much-anticipated game took place at Akoon Community Park, where the visiting team prevailed with a win.

Medeama succumbed to a 1-0 defeat on their home turf in Matchday 32 of the Ghana Premier League campaign, boosting the Lions' chances of avoiding relegation.

Before this game, both teams had recorded three straight victories in the domestic top-flight.

Despite creating goal-scoring opportunities, both teams were unable to find the back of the net in the first half of the game.

The Yellow and Mauve entered the game with determination, aiming for maximum points in the encounter, but the Lions, who were also desperate for points, proved to be the stronger opponent and triumphed over the home team.

Medeama and Lions were on the verge of sharing the spoils in Tarkwa, but late in the game, the visitors grabbed the winning goal through Ebenezer Abban's strike.

Abban fired home the winning goal in injury time after converting nicely from the spot.

Despite the defeat, the defending league champions remain in third position with 49 points after 32 matches.

The Lions, on the other hand, move to 13th position, accumulating 41 points.

With two games left to end the campaign, they will be hoping to secure maximum points to maintain their status in the league.
