Elmina Sharks needed a Benjamin Tweneboah first half penalty to inflict a 1-0 defeat on Inter Allies at home in the Ghana Premier League on Sunday.
Pressure is now mounting on head coach Henrik Peters Lehm who has now lost last his three matches.
The score line at the Papa Kwesi Ndoum Stadium did not tell the whole story as Allies put in an impressive performance and created scoring chances.
After a quarter of an hour of play defender Isah Ali was quick to clear his lines as he blocked Shark’s wonder forward Benjamin Tweneboah from shooting.
Centre back Hashmin Musah took advantage of a loose pass and shot from the halfway line but goalkeeper Lord Bawa Martey grabbed it with ease.
Kingsley Braye made a fantastic solo effort and struck beautifully but once again goalkeeper Martey was there to pull a magnificent save to deny Allies the opener.
Five minutes from the break, Sharks were awarded a penalty and Tweneboah, nicknamed Neymar, scored from 12 yards.
In the 75th minute, Sharks launched a quick counter attack with Paul Abanga beaten but goalkeeper Rashid Seidu was there to save Inter Allies.
