The Yellow and Mauves quickly extended their advantage in the 23rd minute through Agyenim Boateng after he was put through by striker Kwame Boateng.
The Phobians did all they could to get back into the game in the second stanza with the introduction of Patrick Razak but their incessant efforts did not yield any result as Medeama picked the maximum points.
