Division One Zone One side, Steadfast FC booked their place in the Round 32 of the 2022/2023 MTN FA Cup after beating Premier League side Tamale City 1-0 at the Aliu Mahama Stadium on Boxing day.
Steadfast FC were quick to launch their first attack in the early stages and took the lead in the 9th minute through Jibril Nurudeen’s effort.
Tamale City tried as much as they could to pull parity but the resilient defense of Steadfast FC led by center back, Habilu Kunate Alhassan prevented them from doing so. No wonder he won the Best Defender of the Match.
