2025/26 Ghana Premier League: Week 20 Match Report - FC Samartex 2-0 Nations FC

FC Samartex 1996 maintained their formidable home form with a comfortable 2-0 victory over Nations FC at the Nsenkyire Sports Arena in Samreboi on Sunday in the Ghana Premier League matchweek 20.

The Timber Giants started the contest on the front foot and were rewarded in the 39th minute when Christian Agyenim Boateng calmly converted from the penalty spot after sustained pressure in the Nations area.

The opener gave Samartex a deserved lead going into the halftime break.

Samartex wasted no time after the restart to extend their advantage.

Just two minutes into the second half, Kwaku Owusu finished clinically to make it 2-0, effectively putting the game beyond the visitors and sending the home fans into celebration.

Nations attempted to respond but struggled to break down a well-organised Samartex defence that remained resolute throughout the afternoon.

The hosts controlled large spells of the game, limiting their opponents to few clear-cut chances as they saw out the contest with relative ease.

The win extends Samartex’s unbeaten run at home this season and underlines their growing momentum in the second round of the campaign.

For Nations, the result compounds their away-day struggles, as they remain without a win on the road after nine league travels this season.
