Dreams FC have progressed to the semi-finals of the 2025/26 FA Cup after edging out Heart of Lions in a penalty shootout on Sunday afternoon.
The two Ghana Premier League sides faced off at the Cape Coast Stadium in a tightly contested quarter-final encounter, with a place in the last four at stake.
Heart of Lions broke the deadlock in the 32nd minute when Seedorf Asante found the back of the net, handing the Kpando-based side the advantage heading into the latter stages of the match.
Just as it appeared Lions would hold on for the win, Dreams FC produced a dramatic late response. Seidu Suraj struck in the 92nd minute to level the score and force the match into extra time.
Both teams pushed for a winner during the additional 30 minutes but failed to find the decisive goal, sending the contest to a penalty shootout.
Dreams FC kept their composure from the spot, converting four of their attempts to secure a 4-2 victory and book their place in the semi-finals.
The Believers will now wait to face the winner of the quarter-final clash between Attram De Visser Academy and Medeama SC.
