Mighty Jets held by Aduana in Premier League match
Accra , Apr 07, GNA - Struggling Tudu Mighty Jets
failed in their attempt to temporary turn around
their ailing season as they struggled for the
three maximum points when they hosted Aduana Stars
to a one all draw game in their 23 Week Glo
Premier League meet at the Accra Sports Stadium on
Saturday.

Both teams played incredibly poor on a day that
Jets needed a win to boast their pitiable run in
the League but their effort proved otherwise as
Aduana dominated the first half and were unlucky
not to have scored.

The first half was blighted with comedy of errors
with Aduana's strongest effort yet in 20minutes
when the former champions' Emmanuel Akuoku raced
deep into the half in a test that Jets goalkeeper
Kotei Blankson did well to pass the mark.

Mighty Jets looked the weaker side the entire
first half with their brightest opportunity
falling to Eli Ben Agbeko just before half time
when he darted from the right only to sweep way
off target with injured goalkeeper Steven Adams
compromised.

From the recess, Jets appeared recovered from
their first half 'ills' as they pushed for a goal
from every angle. But whiles the visitor's rear
did some fine defending, it was Jets substitute
Nayaro Alhassan who missed from an unpardonable
spot when he was sent clear from the middle on the
hour mark.

With pressure mounting on the visitor's,
goalkeeper Adams had to save them from conceding
nine minutes on when he saved brilliantly from
Agbeko's goal attempt from the near post.

Both teams failed to capitalise on the few chances
that were created in a not impressive outing that
left the few fans at the stadium wondering about
the performance of the players, especially from
the strikers until the final whistle.
