Medeama continued to press for the second, and went close on a couple of occasions, but were unsuccessful.
The two teams went into the break with Medeama holding a slight lead.
Young Apostles came out of the break looking to restore parity, but their chances took a huge blow when Prince Owusu, fired home from 40 yards to double MEDEAMA’s lead.
