Kotoko Lick Lions. As Chelsea Sack Pullack

Asante Kotoko's  two first half strikes was enough to secure their recent summit status when they sent  Heart of Lions home empty-handed in their crucial tie at the Baba Yara Stadium yesterday.

Striking pair of in-form Ahmed Toure and Nathaniel Asamoah found the net in the 8th and 25th minutes respectively.

The goals thus raise their tally in the four-week Glo Premier League scoring chat to four goals apiece.

After recess, Asamoah combined effectively with Toure to increase the tally but the former shot off target.

The lead notwithstanding, the home side kept probing their opponent's half but their efforts were not crowned with goals.

Many goal scoring opportunities came the way of Lions' Gilbert Fiamenyo but Kotoko's rear provided enough cover for their Burkinabe goalkeeper Soulama Abdulai.

Meanwhile, reports emanating from the Golden City Park in Berekum say Berekum Chelsea have axed their English coach Steve Pollack.

The Englishman took over from Orlando Wellington and Yusif Abubakar, who guided the team to win last season's league.
