Finishing was Raphael Dwamena’s biggest strength- Augustine Arhinful

Former Black Stars striker Augustine Arhinful

Former Black Stars striker Augustine Arhinful has picked out finishing as Raphael Dwamena’s biggest strength when speaking at the latter’s funeral.

Dwamena was buried this past weekend after suffering a cardiac arrest and passing away while playing in the Albania League for Egnatia.

The former Real Zaragoza and Levante player scored twice in nine appearances for the Black Stars but a heart condition curtailed his career.

As a former Black Stars striker, Arhinful pointed to his fellow’s striker’s ability to finish chances as his biggest strength and was sad Dwamena couldn’t play more for Ghana.

“I think his finishing, we all know his finishing. The few games that he played for the Black Stars we all saw what he could do and so it is sad it is unfortunate he is no more with us.”
