The 2024 Division One League (DOL) Super Cup kicked-off with thrilling matches on Match Day 1 with Okwawu United emerging as the early leaders of Group A, thanks to a narrow victory over New Edubiase United.

In the day's opening match, Young Apostles and Hohoe United played out a 1-1 draw. Akwasi Nti Randoff opened the scoring for Young Apostles in the 43rd minute, but Kwadwo Boamah equalized for Hohoe United just before halftime. Both teams had opportunities to secure a win in the second half, but the match ended in a stalemate.

Okwawu United then secured a 1-0 win against New Edubiase United, courtesy of a penalty converted by Kojo Zimbo. The victory came despite a late scare when New Edubiase were awarded a penalty in the 88th minute. However, Okwawu United's goalkeeper, Maxwell Adom, saved the spot-kick from Samed Ibrahim, ensuring his team's win and ascent to the top of the group standings.

With these results, Okwawu United leads Group A with three points, while Young Apostles and Hohoe United follow with one point each. New Edubiase United, yet to secure a point, will look to bounce back in their next fixture.

The tournament continues on Tuesday with matches from Group B, as teams aim to establish their positions in the standings. Fans can expect more exciting action as the 2024 DOL Super Cup progresses.
