At 2 goals adrift this was a formality, and the formality lasted right up until it did not. Wa All Stars found something the first half had given no notice of, and Great Olympics could not hold what they had.
1 on the scoresheet on his first appearance and a mark of 7.89 beside it. Most debuts are got through; this one was enjoyed, by him and by everybody watching it.
“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Wa All Stars can pretend not to have heard.
6 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.
Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 7 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

Kofi Duffour, 19, plays like he has been here for years — 8.07
A mark of 8.07 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 19-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.
He is 19, and nobody at Wa All Stars signed him for this season. Deals like this are judged in four years, by people who may not still be in the building.
He is not being dropped. There is simply nowhere in the formation Wa All Stars are playing to put a man who does what he does, which is a harder thing to be told than any team sheet.
A brace, and Andre Inusah takes the afternoon — 8.76
There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Andre Inusah provided it, and the 8.76 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.
4 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Wa All Stars this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 19 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.
A month is long enough that nobody gets in by accident. Edmund Addo is in the division's best eleven for it, which is a quieter compliment than an award and a more reliable one.

The manager’s verdict
“I am not going to get carried away and I will not let them either. It was a good day. There will be harder ones.” Isaac Boateng kept it short after the 2‑1 win, which is what managers do when they are happy.
Nothing is announced when this happens and everybody knows. He is a bigger part of the plan at Wa All Stars than he was a month ago, and the training ground worked that out before the team sheet said so.
In brief
The dugoutThe plan did not have a place for David Adjei
Andre Inusah 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.
Three points for Wa All Stars, 1‑0 the final word against Hasaacas in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Andre Inusah was on a different afternoon to everybody else
8.00. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.
“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Wa All Stars, and 0 appearances in 5 say he has earned the hearing.
Successful dribbles: 14. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.
The shape wanted a different profile against this opponent, which is a real football answer and no comfort at all to the man it is about. He did nothing wrong and he did not play.
“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Wa All Stars can pretend not to have heard.
David Mohammed and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.
A 1‑0 win over Heart of Lions, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.
“The players deserve the credit. My job was easy today.” It was not, and everybody in the room knew it; after 1‑0, Isaac Boateng could afford to be generous.
The manager wanted a different profile for this opponent, which is a real football reason and no consolation. He did nothing wrong and he did not play.
Gladson Asante wins it after the whistle should have gone
96 minutes played. Gladson Asante found the finish in time that only existed because of earlier delays, and Berekum Chelsea went from a point to nothing inside one movement.
“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Wa All Stars can pretend not to have heard.
A 3‑2 win over Berekum Chelsea, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.
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.
“I watch every Wa All Stars game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at Great Olympics runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.

The manager’s verdict
“I am not going to get carried away and I will not let them either. It was a good day. There will be harder ones.” Isaac Boateng kept it short after the 3‑2 win, which is what managers do when they are happy.
“It was not right for me. I am not going to explain why to anybody except the people I owe an explanation to.” A deal agreed between two clubs, and a player who declined to be part of it.
The offer from Sirens for David Mohammed was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.
Add another name to the list: Javor-Matis have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Daouda Kone. The answer from Wa All Stars has not changed — yet.
The deal with Liberty Professionals is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.
Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Marbella have kept their man, and Wa All Stars go back to a list with one name crossed off it.
Andre Inusah and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.
