The All Star Festival Community Football Gala in Tamale witnessed a major upset as Sagnarigu defeated the previously undefeated Lamashegu team. This surprise result has changed the dynamics in Group A with Sagnerigu now taking the top spot.
Lamashegu boasted a perfect record in the competition after two games, but Sagnerigu managed to dent their dominance, emerging victorious with a 1-0 win.
This unexpected defeat injects a dose of twists into Group A, where Lamashegu, previous leaders, now finished the group stage in second place.
Meanwhile, Changli also secured their first win of the Gala. After a string of challenging matches and two defeats, Changli finally found their footing and secured a well-deserved 1-0 victory against Sabonjida.
The win, although not enough to ensure qualification to the next round, Changli exit the gala on a positive note with their faces held high.
Elsewhere in Group C, all the two games played in the group ended in draws. Kpalsi played out a goalless game against Kakpagyilli while the match between Sakasaka and Kukuo finished 1-1.
These results had little to no ramifications for the group dynamics as Kakpagyilli and Kpalsi maintained their respective positions in the group before the games and progress to the quarter finals in first and second place respectively.
With Group B and D actions on the line to conclude the group stage, the All Star Festival Community Football Gala is heating up and promises to deliver more exciting matches in the coming days as it heads to the knockout round.
