WAFA’s Derrick Antwi Mensah was named Man of the Match in Wednesday’s five-goal thriller at Sogakope.

The young fullback was exceptional in his role and ensured the home rallied to victory despite a late charge from the Ogya Lads.

The Academy boys raced to a three-goal lead after 35 minutes through goals from Augustine Boakye, Justus Torsutsey, and Youssoufou Atte.

Aduana then reduced the deficit to one after goals from Sam Adams and Flavio Kongoza.

Derrick Antwi Mensah together with the rest of the academy boys backline held the forth very well and prevented Aduana Stars from getting a leveller as the game ended 3-2 in favour of the hosts.
