UPPER EAST UTD OPEN 4 POINT LEAD IN ZONE 1A STANDINGS

27 February, 2012

Real Tamale United lost the top-of-the-table clash to Upper East United 1-0 as the leaders opened a four-point gap at the summit.
RTU hope of securing a point from Bolgatanga was dashed after the host played in their usual ‘must win home attitude’ to claim all three points.RTU had defender Hanan Giwa stretched off the field of play after the influential central defender sustained an injury in the second half of the match.

The pride of the North returns home to a derby clash with Tamale Utrecht on Sunday that picked maximum points on Sunday after winning 3-0 against Black Bulls.

Meanwhile Guan United on Saturday lost 1-0 to Yeji Juventus who are yet to lose a point in their home whilst Bongo United for the second time failed to turn out for their home game against Bazooka FC on Saturday.
