The former New Edubiase United goalie made several crucial saves when Hearts of Oak suffered a 0-1 defeat at Bechem United. Hadn’t been Mensah the Phobians could have conceded more than a goal in the game.
Amos Frimpong
The Asante Kotoko skipper was part of Steve Polac’s three back when they edged Medeama SC 3-1 on Sunday. He augmented the defence of his side and joined the attack when necessary to give Kotoko much attacking bite up front.

Joseph Laweh
He was instrumental in starting the attack of Tema Youth especially in their quest to rally back from two early goals conceded against Ebusua Dwarfs. Laweh was very quick to retreat whenever they came under attack from the visitors, yet the harbours boys lost 2-1 at home.
Stephen Anoky Badu
He was the heart of the Aduana Stars defence and he did all the dangerous clearances from the vital area of the hosts, especially playing without his regular centre pair Wahab Adams. Anokye Badu was made very bust at the back, yet he stood the test of time to help the Dormaa boys win 2-1 against Liberty Professionals.

Nicholas Opoku
The Black Stars defender commanded the Berekum Chelsea defence very well especially playing against a well determined Inter Allies side that had a lot of new faces. Opoku gave the Inter Allies marksman Abdul Hudu close marking.
Simon Zibo
The Liberty Professionals midfielder out-boxed the compact Aduana Stars midfielders, namely Elvis Opoku and Zakaria Mumuni. Simon Zibo won several 50-50 balls and his creativity in distributing the balls was amazing.
