From Sheffield to Shanghai, Ghanaian players lit up the weekend with goals, a cup triumph and a long-awaited Chinese league title for Acheampong.
Ghana's footballers abroad had a weekend to remember, and the biggest story came from China, where Acheampong finally landed his first Chinese league title after 10 seasons. It was a reward for patience and persistence, and a proud moment for the Ghanaian diaspora.
In England, Jordan Ayew found the net for Sheffield United, but it was not enough. The Blades went down 2-1 to Charlton in the Championship. In the Czech Republic, Prince Kwabena Adu earned Viktoria Plzen a point with a crucial strike in a 1-1 draw against Sparta Prague on Sunday.
There was silverware in Kazakhstan too. David Abagna got on the scoresheet as FC Ordabasy beat FC Kaysar 4-1 at Turkestan Arena to lift the 2026 Kazakhstan Cup. In Turkey, Dan Agyei scored in Kocaelispor's 2-0 Super League win over Eyupspor.
China's top flight had plenty of Ghanaian flair. Prince Obeng Ampem was the star of Shanghai Port's 6-1 rout of Liaoning Tieren, with a brace and two assists. Yaw Yeboah scored for Qingdao Hainiu in a 2-2 draw with Shenzhen Xinpengcheng.
Elsewhere, Nana Antwi struck for Beitar Jerusalem in a 1-1 draw with Ironi Tiberias in Israel. Clement Ansah scored for Trencin in a 2-2 draw against Slovan Bratislava in Slovakia. Wherever they play, Ghana's exports keep delivering.
