Bibiani GoldStars clinch historic first Ghana Premier League title with emphatic win over Accra Lions

Bibiani GoldStars have been crowned champions of the Ghana Premier League for the first time in the club’s history after a commanding 4-0 victory over relegated Accra Lions on the final day of the 2024/25 season.

Just four years after earning promotion to the top flight, the Miners have completed a remarkable rise to the summit of Ghanaian football.

Heading into the decisive fixture, GoldStars knew only a win would guarantee them the title, with Nations FC and Asante Kotoko breathing down their necks. Fortunately for the Bibiani-based side, both rivals faltered on the final day—leaving the path clear for a GoldStars triumph.

In front of a packed Duns Park, the hosts wasted no time in asserting their dominance. Abdul Farouk Amoaful opened the scoring just four minutes in, setting the tone for the afternoon.

Kelvin Oppong added a second in the 19th minute, calmly tapping home a cross from the right to put the home fans in dreamland.

Accra Lions attempted to regain control through possession, but their efforts lacked penetration, and the relegated visitors struggled to trouble the GoldStars backline.

After the break, Samuel Atta Kumi further extended GoldStars’ lead, effectively sealing the result, before Frank Amankwah put the icing on the cake with a fourth goal just five minutes later.

The emphatic win saw GoldStars finish top of the table and celebrate their first-ever Ghana Premier League title in style—a historic achievement for a club that has rapidly established itself as a force in Ghanaian football.
