The stage is set for the 2026 MTN FA Cup semi-finals, with all four remaining clubs vying for a spot in the final and the chance to represent Ghana in the African Confederations Cup.
The decisive matches will take place this weekend at Swedru Park. On Friday, 17th April 2026, Nations FC will face Aduana FC. On Saturday, 18th April 2026, Dreams FC will take on Medeama SC.
Medeama Eye Double
Medeama SC, currently sitting at the summit of the Ghana Premier League, are determined to make history by securing a league and cup double. Their quest for silverware is driven by a desire to cement their status among Ghana’s football elite. Meanwhile, Dreams FC, no strangers to this stage, are eager to return to the final and replicate past successes.
Aduana FC: Dark Horses After Kotoko Scalp
Aduana FC may have seen their Premier League title hopes fade, but their elimination of defending champions Kumasi Asante Kotoko has installed them as hot favourites heading into the semi-finals. With confidence running high, they will be a formidable opponent for Nations FC.
Nations FC: The Model Club Aiming for History
Based in the Ashanti Region, Nations FC pride themselves on owning their own facilities and operating as a model club. Their individual-driven investment model has drawn attention, and now they seek the ultimate reward: a place in the FA Cup final.
For players like Razak Simpson, success in the MTN FA Cup is also a platform to push for Black Stars selection ahead of the World Cup.
Key Goalscorers to Watch
Individual brilliance has lit up this year’s cup campaign. Center-back Alex Boakye has scored three goals for Aduana FC in the tournament, while Nations FC’s Emmanuel Annor has found the net twice ahead of Friday’s showdown. On the other side of the bracket, Abdul Razak Salifu leads the scoring chart for Dreams FC with five goals, while Medeama SC’s Kingsley Braye has contributed four.
