GPL 2024/25: Late comeback sees Accra Lions beat Basake Holy Stars

Accra Lions pulled off a dramatic late comeback to defeat Basake Holy Stars 2-1 on matchday 27 of the Ghana Premier League at the Accra Sports Stadium.

The visitors took an early lead through Prince Tweneboah in the 5th minute and maintained their advantage into halftime.

Holy Stars looked dangerous early in the second half but failed to capitalize on their chances. With 20 minutes left, Accra Lions shifted momentum, with Hamzata Musah equalizing in the 72nd minute before Lucky Nwafor sealed the win six minutes later.

The result allowed Accra Lions to avoid a season double defeat to Holy Stars and lifted them out of the relegation zone—now one point clear of danger—pending Sunday’s league matches.
