A few minutes later, he picked up the ball and was immediately confronted by a Medeama player but the forward calmly slipped the ball through the legs of his marker and continued his surge forward.
The move was cheered wildly by the few people who had made their way into the stadium, with the clip soon making its way onto social media, going viral in minutes.
The match ended goalless, with both sides still winless after three matches.
“We are hoping that we will win our next game and make the fans happy. They need the wins and I hope it’s just soon,” Gyan said after the match.
