UGCFL Week 7: Ghana Armed Forces and GFA win big in Group A

Match Week 7 was played at the UG Sports Stadium and warm-up pitch on April 10, 2026. It was a night of big wins and dominant performances. The first game of the night for Group A on the warm-up pitch was between the Ghana Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA) and the University of Ghana (UG).

GCAA came prepared to dominate UG. Samuel Aferi understood the assignment and scored the first goal just three minutes into the game, a great start for GCAA. He wasn’t done yet, as he added another goal exactly three minutes later to prove his superiority.

By the sixth minute, GCAA were already 2–0 up, and conceding that early shattered UG’s confidence. UG tried to respond, but their efforts were unsuccessful.

Ghana Armed Forces Officers Sports Club (GAFOSC) followed suit with a dominant 3–0 win over Bui Power Authority. The match began calmly, with both teams sharing possession, but in the 4th minute, GAFOSC’s number 7, Lac Eric Oduro, opened the scoring. GAFOSC then took full control of the game.

Although Bui Power tried to get a hold of the game, they held on only until the 12th minute, when Lac Gideon Adjetey Mensah scored the second goal. Sgt Michael Amoh sealed the victory with the third goal, ensuring GAFOSC’s dominance.

The first two games were a showcase of dominance, and the Ghana Football Association (GFA) was not about to break the streak.

They faced Stanbic Bank and secured a commanding 6–1 victory. GFA wasted no time, with Eric Donkor scoring in the 1st minute, followed by Philip Aseweh in the 2nd minute. It almost seemed like GFA would score every minute, but Stanbic Bank managed to slow the momentum.

Forster Ayisi added a third goal in the 15th minute. Stanbic Bank responded in the 18th minute through their number 14, Andrews Dodoo, giving them a glimmer of hope. However, Eric Donkor returned to score three more goals, completing his hat-trick and extending GFA’s lead to six goals.

Lancaster Accra could not match the high-scoring trend but secured a solid 2–0 victory over the Ghana National Petroleum Corporation (GNPC). It was a tough encounter, as GNPC proved resilient. Lancaster broke the deadlock in the 16th minute through Michael Essuman. GNPC pushed for an equaliser but couldn’t find the breakthrough. In the second half, Daniel Agyekum scored in the 33rd minute to seal the 2–0 win for Lancaster.

The final game between GOIL and GIMPA did not follow the night’s dominant trend, as both teams refused to be outdone, ending in an exciting 3–3 draw. GIMPA’s Jeremiah Acquah opened the scoring just four minutes into the game. GOIL responded quickly, with their number 8, Ishmael Abdul-Wahab, equalising two minutes later.

Kwabena Darkwa then gave GOIL the lead in the 8th minute. In the 17th minute, Jeremiah Acquah equalised again and added another goal two minutes later to restore GIMPA’s lead. After a period of back-and-forth play, Emmanuel Aryee scored in the 33rd minute to level the game for GOIL.
