Two magical moments by Joel Fameyeh saved the local Black Stars from embarrassment, handing the team a deserved 2-1 victory over their Ivorian counterparts. The narrow wingave Ghana a slight edge to pick one of three tickets from Zone West B for a fourth appearance at the biannual CHAN tournament in Rwanda next January.
A late inclusion in the team, Fameyeh’s strikes, one in either half, saved the blushes of head coach Maxwell Konadu, as he seek to re-align and sharpen his attack, tighten his midfield, and, perhaps, find a fitting striking partner for Fameyeh, the revelation of the day.
Fameyeh's exceptional eye for goals brought back fond memories of former Premier League goal-king and Hearts of Oak arrowhead, Joe Fameyeh. The Asokwa Deportivo striker’s deft touches from a two-man move with Daniel Darkwah fetched Ghana's equaliser on the stroke of half time.
