Elijah Addai scored in injury-time to lift Bofoakwa Tano to a breathless a 2-1 win over Dreams FC to set up an All Bono final in the 2023-24 MTN FA Cup in an enthralling semi-final contest in Sogakope on Sunday.

Aboagye Dacosta put Bofo ahead with the opening goal in the 47th minute before Emmanuel Adjei pulled parity through the spot kick in the 60th minute.

Elijah Addai stole the show with an injury-time winner in the Volta Region in an absorbing second semi-final contest on Sunday.

Goalkeeper Emmanuel Kobi, who deservedly clinched Man of the Match award, put up a stupendous performance in front of a decent crowd to deny a marauding Dreams FC attack.

Bofoakwa Tano's victory at the WAFA park kept alive their only hope of silverware this season and spoiled Dreams' dream of making a return to continental football.

In an absorbing contest, Dreams FC striker Joseph Esso missed three great opportunities and will rue his inability to get at least a goal.

Bofoakwa Tano has now set up a final against regional rivals Nsoatreman FC next month.
