Accra Great Olympics on Friday recorded an emphatic 3-0 win against Legon Cities at the Accra Sports stadium to register their first win of the season.

The Dade boys surprised many football fans on Sunday, when they held Medeama SC to a 1-1 draw in an away fixture at Tarkwa.

Olympics came into the game buoyed by that result and made their intentions clear right from the blast of the whistle. Former Ghana youth star Gladson Awako stole the headlines following his heroics against the Royals. The former Berekum Chelsea man commanded an enterprising midfield quartet comprising, Michel Otu, Maxwell Abbey Quaye and Samuel Ashie Quaye.

With just a minute left on the clock for the end of the first half, their scintillating play paid off when Gladson Awako beautifully connected a free kick from the edge of the box in the 44th minute to give them the opener.

Olympics ended the first half with their tails up but showed no sign of taking their legs off the accelerator during the second half. In the 53rd minute, Maxwell Abbey Quaye scored from the penalty spot after a foul on Samuel Ashie Quaye.

Abbey slotted the ball colly into the lower corner to beat Fatau Dauda in post for Legon Cities to increase the tally for Great Olympics.
