Visiting Aduana Stars survived a late onslaught from Great Olympics to win 2-1 in their rescheduled Match day 11 Ghana Premier League (GPL) fixture at the Accra Sports Stadium.

The match was rained off last Sunday. When it was replayed yesterday, a ninth-minute own goal by Olympics captain Dan Quaye and Bright Adjei’s 38th-minute drive secured the win for the visitors, as Abel Manomey’s goal from a powerful shot in the second half only gave Olympics a false sense of hope but could not save them from defeat.

Jockey Jonathan Mensah has appealed to the Ministry of Youth and Sports and corporate bodies to help develop and promote horse racing in the country.

This, he said will not only create employment opportunities for the youth but will help them desist from engaging in social vices.
