On resumption, Kessben concentrated their game plan on the flanks where Zuga Yufa and Richard Adjei operated effectively and came up occasionally with some dangerous and incisive crosses. This strategy worked to perfection as the homesters opened the scoring in the 47th minute when defender Kofi Agyare joined the attack to connect home a corner kick effected by Akwasi Bobie Ansah. Ten minutes later, Kessben increased the tally to two through Akwasi Adu, who broke loose from his marker, to intercept a pass from Yufa before unleashing a thunderbolt that zoomed into the yawing net. Wise lifted their game in search of a consolation but their efforts proved futile.
