Welcome to the Thomas Partey show. Four days after salvaging a point for Ghana’s Black Stars in their 2018 World Cup qualifying game against Congo, Partey emerged hero again yesterday as he led the Stars to a convincing 5-1 win against the Red Devils in the return fixture in Brazzaville.
Partey scored his first hat-trick for the Stars with a man-of-the-match performance, as he run the show in midfield to make amends for the team’s disappointing 1-1 draw in Kumasi. Yesterday’s massive win may have revived Ghana’s fading hope of a chance to make it to Russia 2018.
