Port City returned to winning ways with a 1-0 victory over Basake Holy Stars at the Daasebre Boamah Darko II Park on Sunday.
Francis Gyetuah scored the only goal of the game in the 65th minute to lift Christopher Ennin’s side to third place in the Ghana Premier League standings with 18 points, three behind leaders Medeama SC.
Gyetuah capitalised on a loose pass just outside the penalty area before using a clever dummy to beat his marker and calmly slot the ball home.
Port City came close to extending their lead three minutes later, but Ransford Nartey’s effort was blocked inside the six-yard box.
Basake Holy Stars pushed for an equaliser and forced goalkeeper Daniel Amissah into action in the 75th minute, with the Port City shot-stopper punching away a dangerous free-kick.
The visitors, however, failed to break down Port City's defence and suffered a third consecutive defeat.
Basake Holy Stars will look to end their losing run when they host Vision FC in their next fixture, while Port City travel to fellow debutants Debibi United as they seek to build on Sunday's victory.
