Berekum Chelsea scored deep into stoppage time to secure a dramatic 2-1 victory over Asante Kotoko at the Golden City Park on Sunday, handing the Porcupine Warriors another setback in the Ghana Premier League.
Kotoko appeared poised for an important away victory after Adam Inusah converted a penalty in the 60th minute to give the visitors the lead.
However, Chelsea responded five minutes later, with Zackaria Fuseini finding the equaliser to bring the home side back into the game.
With both teams searching for a winner, Yussif Bayanalabe delivered the decisive moment, scoring in the 90+1st minute to complete Chelsea’s comeback and secure all three points.
The defeat further compounds Kotoko’s inconsistent campaign, leaving the Kumasi-based side 10th on the league table with three wins, four draws and two defeats.
Berekum Chelsea, meanwhile, climbed to ninth place following the crucial home victory.
Kotoko will hope to bounce back when they face Gold Stars in their next fixture, while Chelsea turn their attention to a meeting with Swedru All Blacks.
