Asante Kotoko won 2-0 over bottom-placed Legon Cities in their Ghana Premier League return at the Baba Yara Stadium.
Ghana's top-tier competition was paused for a month and six days following the murder of Kotoko fan Francis Frimpong Pooley due to hooliganism, who was laid to rest on March 6.
Kotoko and Legon Cities both displayed his banner with the inscription "forever in our heart" and held a minute of silence before kickoff in memory of the late supporter.
The Porcupines dominated the encounter from the outset, taking the lead in the 27th minute when defender Patrick Asiedu struck a powerful low strike from the edge of the box into the bottom left corner.
