A late free-kick from left-footed Eric Donkor was enough to deliver the 2015 HP Nyemiteye SWAG Cup to Asante Kotoko at the Baba Yara Stadium yesterday.
Donkoh perfectly curled in a free-kick just after the 18-yard box to wrestle the new silverware from the reigning league champions-Ashgold when the game was heading for penalty shoot out.
It was head trainer, David Duncan's first trophy since joining the Red Army, having lost trophies like the FA and the Otumfuo Cups.
Before the only goal that separated the two sides, both sides had thrilled the fans with beautiful display of soccer despite the near misses that characterized the game.
Ashgold's coach Bashir Hayford reshuffled his cards in the dying minutes-brought on goalkeeper Nana Bonsu for Robert Dabuo thinking the game was heading for spot kicks.
The win also took Kotoko's SWAG's honours to seven titles. It was the Miners second streak loss after losing it narrowly to Accra Hearts of Oak in Accra.
