    GHANA vs. TUNISIA (AFCON 1978)

    Awuley Quaye gave that long-range pass that Razak connected to the back of the net. It was famously referred to as the golden goal!

  • Spio 2 months ago

    Isaac Aquaye gave the pass not Awuley Quaye

    Yes, that game was played in Kumasi with veteran goalkeeper Atouga in the posts for Tunisia.

    Awuley in those days had the nickname "Foyoo" but never got to know the origin and meaning of that name.

    Sorry,.....with third team Nigeria I meant to say, and not "runners-up" as Uganda was rather the runners-up.

  • Kojo 2 months ago

    Kwɛɛ I remember him so well. We use to mimic him and ourselves Awuley Quaye when we were young playing football. May he rest peacefully

  • Seini 2 months ago

    May he rest in perfect peace. I watched him put up a captain s performance in the 1979 ancon final. They were all amateur football players who sacrificed so much for Ghana football.

  • Tanko 2 months ago

    Rest Well “ MAN POWER “ He would remain one of the best central defenders Ghana ever had. Alongside Kuuku Dadzie and Issac Paha. Awuley Quaye was a sight to see during the 1978 African Cup Of Nations

  • Afro Values 2 months ago

    Oh! Beloved Awuley Quaye is now gone, leaving our dear 'Ewule Monkor' to take full stage of the legacy building. Rest in peace, great soccer man.
