David Gyamfi Scores Hat-Trick in Team's First-Ever Win

David Gyamfi turned a dream debut into reality with three goals that gave FC Ashantigold their first-ever Ghana Premier League victory, beating Vision FC 3-1 at home on Saturday.

The newly promoted club wasted no time making their mark. Just seven minutes into the match at Len Clay Stadium in Obuasi, Gyamfi scored his first goal to put the home crowd on their feet.

Vision FC fought back quickly with a stunning free kick from Sheriff Mohammed Iddrisu that leveled the score. But the equalizer only seemed to fuel Gyamfi's determination.

The forward restored Ashantigold's lead with his second goal, then completed his hat-trick right before halftime to make it 3-1. His three-goal performance made him the first player to score a hat-trick in the 2026/27 Premier League season.

Coach Karim Zito's squad had already shown they belonged at this level by earning a point in their opening match at Port City. Now with this commanding home victory, they've collected four points from their first two matches as a Premier League team.

The Ripple Effect

For a club playing in Ghana's top division for the first time, this victory represents more than three points in the standings. It sends a message to established teams that the newcomers arrived ready to compete, not just participate.

The win also energizes the Obuasi community, giving local fans a hero to celebrate and proof that their team can hold its own against more experienced opponents. Young players across the region now have a fresh example that breakthrough moments are possible with preparation and confidence.

Gyamfi's hat-trick performance gives Ashantigold momentum heading into the long season ahead.
