The 1-0 win propelled Kotoko back into second place on the league table, with a game in hand, as they continue to enjoy a solid run at their temporary home.
Kotoko dominated the match, controlling the majority of possession and outplaying a struggling Samartex side. Despite the champions managing four attempts at goal, they failed to register a single shot on target.
In contrast, Kotoko’s persistence paid off when Amoah found the back of the net in the 31st minute. The forward seized the opportunity after Samartex’s defense failed to clear a strike, calmly slotting the ball past the keeper.
The victory marked Kotoko’s second consecutive win at Len Clay, where they remain unbeaten. Meanwhile, Samartex’s struggles in their title defense deepened as they appeared toothless throughout the match, unable to challenge Kotoko’s dominance.
Kotoko’s solid performance reinforces their push for a title challenge, while Samartex will need to regroup quickly to get their campaign back on track.
Kotoko could go top with a win in midweek against Legon Cities in an outstanding match, while Samartex faces Berekum Chelsea.
