Wa Power — Sankara Nationals, First Division League

Wa Power and Sankara Nationals met in the First Division League on Sunday, the visitors holding on for a 1-0 win. The result leaves Wa Power rooted to the bottom of the table with just one point from two games, while Sankara Nationals sit third with four points.

We had backed the hosts to win, putting 53 per cent confidence on it. The match went another way, and it was a single moment that decided it. One mistake ends it, and Wa Power paid for theirs.

The visitors have been steady, drawing with Real Tamale before this win. Wa Power came into the fixture after a 1-1 draw with Steadfast, but they could not find the winner this time. The crowd roared them on, but the home side ran out of ideas.

Wa Power now sit eighth, level on points with more games than some sides above them. Sankara Nationals sit three points clear of the teams around them, and they have one foot in the next round if the playoffs work like that.
