Ethiopian football record champions St George four year trophy draught appears to come to an end following the league season first round incredible performance. St George tops the league table three points clear of second place Wolayeta Dicha.
The first round only unbeaten side, scoring 24 goals while conceding only six and an amazing five consecutive clean sheets, St George is the most accomplished side taking the driver’s seat with 31 points from eight wins and seven draws.
A hard to beat goalkeeper, a strong defense an industrious midfield and a deadly strike force, it appears up to the club to lose the title rather than it’s adversaries efforts.
Maybe considered the surprise package of the first round Wolayeta Dicha is second in the roaster with 28 points from eight wins, four draws and three defeats.
Tsegaye K/ Mariam at the helm Dicha is considered the major title contender next to fourth place Fasil Ketema currently in some sloppy forms. Hawassa Ketema under head coach Zeray Mulu appeared to be in strong title contention sitting just four points behind the leaders.
Defending champions Fasil Ketema is still the strongest title contender despite camping fourth in the table five points behind the current league leaders. Resigning their former striker Mujib Kasim back from Algeria, Fasil is expected to be the strongest contender to retain the title.
Just six points behind the leaders Sidama Bunna joined the top five teams battling for the title. Gebremedin Haile who led AbaJifar and Mekele Ketema to championship title has a potential to turn around Sidama Bunna to one of the title contenders.
