Liberty Professional produced a stunning first-half display to brush aside Hearts of Oak 3-0 on Wednesday to lift this year's SWAG Cup.

The Dansoman-based side, who were only invited after Ashgold pulled out of the annual match organized by sports writers in the country, won the game thanks to a brace from in-form striker Yaw Antwi.

He shocked the home crowd and gave his side the lead even before some fans took their seats after profiting from a defensive slip-up in the after just two minutes of play.

Antwi doubled Liberty?s lead on 35 minutes when he connected Italy-bound Kojo Asamoah cross.

The out-of-sorts home side provided no challenge for Liberty and Kofi Nti Boakye sealed the victory just after the break.

The victory was Liberty?s second trophy of the season, having beaten the Phobians 7-6 on penalties in the NIIT Invitational Tournament final two weeks ago.
