Ghana's homegrown winger Edmond Amakye grabbed Man of the Match and passed the credit to his teammates after Ashantigold's Premier League win.
Ghana's domestic talent is making noise, and young Ashantigold winger Edmond Amakye is leading the chorus. The attacker starred as the Miners beat FC Samartex in a Week Six Ghana Premier League clash at the Len Clay Stadium, earning the Man of the Match award for his display.
The result gave Ashantigold three valuable points, and Amakye was central to the effort. Even so, the youngster kept the spotlight off himself at the post-match press conference. He said he was thrilled with the individual honour, then thanked his coach, Karim Zito, and his teammates for the support behind it.
His attention quickly turned to what comes next. Ashantigold now face Aduana FC, and Amakye was clear that it will not be easy. He said the squad must get their minds right and prepare properly if they want a positive result.
The Week Seven encounter with Aduana FC is set for Sunday, October 18. After a win built on team spirit, Ashantigold will want to carry that momentum into another big test, and Amakye looks ready to keep stepping up.
