Harrison Mohammed breaks New Edubiase United hearts
Some goals win a match and some take one off somebody else. Harrison Mohammed scored in the 89th minute, New Edubiase United had already begun thinking about the journey home, and Liberty Professionals took the lot.

Real improvement from Nana Essien at Liberty Professionals
Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Nana Essien is 20, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Israel Oladeji scored one and made one — 7.95
Two of the goals had his name somewhere on them, which is the afternoon a manager wants from anybody asked to both create and finish. 7.95, and 2 involvements.

Harrison Mohammed has a hand in both — 7.53
One scored and one made, which is a different afternoon from scoring twice and an easier one to overlook. Marked 7.53, and involved in 2 of his side's goals.

Andrew Paintsil has improved at 26, 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. 4 points of it, over months, at an age where the direction normally only goes one way.

Philip Amoh 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.

Yaw Sulemana 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.

Nobody could get near Andre Annan
Successful dribbles: 15. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.
In brief
- Market Abdul Appiah leaves for nothing
- Market Christian Owusu leaves for nothing
- Market The window shut and Andrew Essien is still in the building
