Match

Cruel end for Heart of Lions as Liberty Professionals pounce

There is no crueller way to lose a football match. Liberty Professionals scored in the 93th minute, the restart barely happened, and the away end was still standing when the whistle went.

Player ratings

Baba Inusah scores twice — 8.33

Two goals and a mark of 8.33 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Player ratings

Thomas Kyereh runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 27. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match

Baba Inusah sends Liberty Professionals past Heart of Lions

It finished 3‑2, and it was Baba Inusah’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Liberty Professionals.

Squad

Afriyie Boakye 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 Liberty Professionals this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings

One of those days for Kamaldeen Ofori

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.34, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Squad

Samuel Acquah falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Thomas Ayew

“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.

Player ratings

A costly moment from Samuel Ofori

One lapse, one goal, and ninety minutes of honest work counting for nothing. That is the job at Liberty Professionals, and it is a cruel one.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Match

New Edubiase United punish Liberty Professionals for switching off

3 goals to the good, and then a slow surrender of everything that had been earned. Baba Inusah will not be the one blamed for it, but nobody at Liberty Professionals escapes the conversation that follows a collapse like this.

Player ratings

Kwame Afful, 19, plays like he has been here for years — 7.83

A mark of 7.83 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.

Squad

Yaw Boakye is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 21 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.

Squad

Afriyie Boakye 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 Liberty Professionals this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Thomas Kyereh

Marked 8.37 — 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

Ninety minutes of Baba Inusah at his very best

Marked 8.14. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Liberty Professionals.

Player ratings

One of those days for Samuel Acquah

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.11, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Squad

Words at Liberty Professionals training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Samuel Ofori is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Match

Baba Inusah rescues a point for Liberty Professionals

It needed Baba Inusah to find the net to bring anything home at all: 3‑3 against New Edubiase United, and half the dressing room will call it a point won.
