Bibiani GoldStars' deputy communications and administrative manager Joseph Oti Manu has adopted a measured tone despite his side's historic 2-1 victory over Accra Hearts of Oak, insisting the defending champions are taking the title race one game at a time. The win marked Gold Stars' first-ever triumph over the Phobians since gaining promotion to the Ghana Premier League, a result that narrowed the gap to leaders Medeama SC to just one point with ten matches remaining. Speaking exclusively to Citi Sports after the Week 24 clash, Oti Manu allowed himself a moment of satisfaction while keeping focus firmly on the road ahead. "It was a good weekend for us. It was a good game. The two teams played very well, but let me congratulate Bibiani Gold Stars for the massive win." He acknowledged the significance of finally breaking their duck against Hearts on home soil. "Playing in Bibiani against Hearts, it tends to be a drawn game, but we made everything right from the management level, and the fans were really poised." But when asked about the title implications, Oti Manu refused to be drawn into bold predictions. "It tells you how ready and how serious we are. We are left with 10 games to end the season, and we believe we are picking it game after game, and we will see what happens in the next few months." For now, Gold Stars are content to let their football do the talking—and let the table take care of itself. Send your news stories to [email protected] and via WhatsApp on +233 546310076.
