Match

Liberty Professionals punish Wa All Stars for switching off

2 goals to the good, and then a slow surrender of everything that had been earned. Joseph Wakaso will not be the one blamed for it, but nobody at Wa All Stars escapes the conversation that follows a collapse like this.

Squad

Felix Mohammed: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Wa All Stars have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Match

No end in sight to Wa All Stars's wait for a win

4 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Wa All Stars has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad

Tempers go at Wa All Stars

Junaid Sait 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.

Match

Joseph Wakaso’s goal not enough for Wa All Stars

Joseph Wakaso scored, and precious little else went right: 2‑3 to Liberty Professionals, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

Match

No clean sheets in sight for Wa All Stars

4 games now with at least two against. The back line has been rearranged, the goalkeeper has been backed publicly, and the goals keep going in anyway.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Baba Atiemo

“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.

Squad

Wa All Stars count the cost of losing Joseph Baba

69 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

Player ratings

Joseph Wakaso was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.26. 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.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Match

7 unbeaten for Wa All Stars

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 7 matches without defeat is a foundation Wa All Stars did not have in the autumn.

Squad

Junaid Sait in a row with a teammate

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.

Squad

Felix Mohammed is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 18 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.

Match

Wa All Stars get the job done against BA All Stars

A 2‑1 win over BA All Stars, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Squad

Andre Ofori has improved at 28, which nobody expected

Careers are supposed to plateau and then decline, and the players who ignore that are always the ones who were listening on the training ground. 3 points of it, over months, at an age where the direction normally only goes one way.

Player ratings

One of those days for Joseph Baba

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.09, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Gladson Paintsil

Marked 8.05 — 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.

Player ratings

Joseph Wakaso runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 15. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

Andre Ofori gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.
