Two goals in each half were all that NICK TC-Scan Limited needed to emerge as winners of the maiden edition of LCB Worldwide Ghana organized 8-corporate institutions soccer tournament over the weekend in Tema.
The 8-corporate institutions soccer tournament is an initiative of LCB Worldwide Ghana, a company established to provide specialized consultancy and services to select group of governmental, NGO and private clients for all aspect of crisis prevention and management.
Right from the blast of the whistle, NICK TC-Scan Limited maintained their dominance over GPAH (GNFS) and ended the day with 2: 0 scoreline. Dennis Yeboah took advantage of the lapses on the part of the defenders of GHPA (GNFS) and shot NICK TC-Scan Limited in the lead before the end of first half. Dennis Yebaoh and his team mates worked hard to ensure that the first half ended with them in the lead.
A rejuvenated GHPA (GNFS) returned from the halftime break in search of an equalizer but their effort was not enough as they failed to find the back of the net. As if to demonstrate their intent, NICK TC-Scan increased their lead when Amos Tetteh lashed on to a pass from one of his team mate.
Both sides treated spectators to an exciting game which subsequently ended 2:0 score line.
At the end of the game, NICK TC-Scan was crowned winners of the 8-corporate soccer league which was organized and sponsored by LCB Worldwide Ghana as part of its effort to create a friendly working environment for its stakeholders.
