Emmanuel Arthur and Prince Ameyaw have been the most outstanding players in the league Emmanuel Arthur and Prince Ameyaw have been the most outstanding players in the league

When the University of Ghana Corporate Football League final kicks off on Friday, July 25, 2025, at the University of Ghana Stadium, the spotlight will inevitably fall on two men who have already written their names into tournament folklore with semi-final heroics that defied all expectations.

Emmanuel Arthur of Union Ghana and Prince Kofi Ameyaw of Ghana Civil Aviation Authority didn’t just score goals in the semi-finals, they delivered the strikes that transformed their teams from second-place finishers into final contenders.

Prince Kofi Ameyaw’s 50th minute winner against Ghana Armed Forces Officers Sports Club wasn’t merely the goal that sent GCAA into the final, it was the moment that validated their entire semi-final performance.

After watching his teammates press relentlessly and disrupt the “group winners” rhythm, Ameyaw provided the clinical finish their tactical discipline deserved.

Meanwhile, Emmanuel Arthur’s second-half winner against National Petroleum Authority carried the emotional weight of redemption.

The prolific striker, who had stumbled in their crucial final group game against the Armed Forces, chose the biggest stage to remind everyone why he’s been the tournament’s most consistent performer.

Both players have already rewritten their teams stories with perfectly timed strikes.

Arthur turned Union’s redemption arc from possibility to reality, while Ameyaw transformed GCAA’s final appearance from dream to destiny.

Championship Final: Union Ghana vs Ghana Civil Aviation Authority, a clash between two teams who proved that belief can overcome reputation.

Third Place Play-off: Ghana Armed Forces Officers Sports Club vs National Petroleum Authority, both former group winners seeking to salvage pride.

Both matches are scheduled for Friday, July 25, 2025, at the University of Ghana Stadium.
