LadyStrikers and Sekondi Hasaacas Ladies snapped up the remaining semifinal spots in Group B of the ongoing maiden Women’s Premier Super Cup competition on Tuesday.
Both secured wins to join Ampem Darkoa and Prisons Ladies in completing the semifinals roster.
LadyStrikers topped Group B with 7 points after coming from behind twice to defeat AshTown Ladies 4-2 at Madina Zurak Park.
Comfort Baah Nuako put AshTown ahead after 11 minutes but Sarah Inkoom cancelled out the lead to draw LadyStrikers level at 1-1 in first-half stoppage time.
Three minutes into the second half, Emmanuela Wrenkyi restored the lead for the Kumasi-based and an upset looked on the cards.
But Gladys Amfobea turned things around for LadyStrikers, bagging a quick-fire brace in the 85th and 88th minutes – increasing her competition tally to four goals.
Substitute Martha Gifty Amissah put the icing on the cake – 4-2 – with her goal inside time added on after beating the offside trap.
On top of the goal, Emmanuela Wrenkyi was adjudged the Woman-of-the-Match.
