The opening weekend of the league produced four goals
The University of Ghana Corporate Football League kicked off last Friday, February 21, at the University of Ghana Stadium with intensity, excitement, and an early statement from the defending champions, Union Ghana. With only four goals across four games, defences held firm, but one team refused to be contained.
The biggest highlight of the opening week was Union Ghana’s commanding 3-0 victory over the College of Humanities. The gala champions wasted no time in proving they are the team to beat, dismantling their opponents with clinical finishing and structured play.
From the blast of the whistle, the Union Ghana asserted dominance, showing no rust from their previous triumph. Three unanswered goals sent a clear message, they are here to defend their crown.
While Union Ghana dominated their game, the College of Health Sciences edged past Telecel Ghana with a 1-0 win, thanks to a decisive strike that separated the two sides. It was a match of tactical battles, but a moment of brilliance proved enough to secure all three points.
The other two fixtures of the day saw teams cancel each other out in tight battles. Ghana National Petroleum Corporation (GNPC) and Ghana Football Association (GFA) played out a goalless draw, while the College of Basic & Applied Sciences and College of Education also ended 0-0.
With just four goals in Week 1, attackers found it difficult to shine, but Union Ghana’s explosive start stands out.
