Liberty Professionals throw away a 2-goal lead
2 in front and in complete control, and it finished with New Edubiase United the happier side. There is no version of this afternoon that Liberty Professionals will enjoy reviewing.

A brace, and Amos Afful takes the afternoon — 8.39
There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Amos Afful provided it, and the 8.39 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

No end in sight to Liberty Professionals's wait for a win
5 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Liberty Professionals has to find a result from somewhere.

Kwame Essien pulls a muscle — 14 days out
The injury that keeps coming back, keeps being rushed back from, and quietly costs more careers than the dramatic ones. 14 days is the estimate; the honest figure depends on whether anybody is patient.

Tempers go at Liberty Professionals
Samuel Afful was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

The crowd has taken to Samuel Afful
At 23 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

A masterclass from Samuel Afful
Marked 8.02 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

The manager makes an example of Daniel Annan
“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Honours even between Liberty Professionals and New Edubiase United
3‑3, and both dressing rooms will call it two points lost. A draw that asked plenty of questions and answered none of them.
