Interim Black Stars head coach, Otto Addo was impressed by the display of teenager, Felix Afena-Gyan in Ghana’s World Cup qualifier against the Super Eagles of Nigeria on Friday at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium.
Afena-Gyan, 19, was one of Ghana’s best players on the night against Nigeria, after being handed his debut.
The AS Roma forward has had a meteoric career, where he has quickly become an important part of José Mourinho’s team.
“Felix [Afena-Gyan] did very well, created a lot of chances, made good runs, gave his all in defensive situations, he did exactly what I wanted him to do. He is just 19, wow, what a talent he is,” Addo stated.
Ghana will play the Super Eagles of Nigeria again on Tuesday in Abuja, with a place at the Qatar 2022 World Cup on the line.
