Boakye Yiadom shines in Red Star Belgrade's win

Ghanaian striker Richmond Boakye Yiadom has once again proved why he is regarded as Ghana’s current best striker after putting up a man of the match performance in Red Star Belgrade’s win over FK Zenum in Serbia Superleague.

The prolific striker who was benched because of the Black Stars match against Sierra Leone on Sunday came on as a substitute in the 72 minutes.

Just before the referee whistled for the end of the match, Boakye gave an amazing pass to Marko Marin who wasted no time to nod home Red Star Belgrade’s second goal of the match that secured their win.

The win maintains Red Star Belgrade dominance in the Serbia Super league by sitting on top of the league table with 24 points.

Boakye, has so far played three matches and has scored 3 goals with two assists for Belgrade this season.

Ghana Black Stars will host Sierra Leone in the first leg of the 2019 AFCON qualifiers next week Thursday at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium.

The team is set to begin training ahead of the clash on Monday with the 21 players invited expected to arrive between Monday and Wednesday.

Boakye, who is part of the 21 players invited by the head coach Kwasi Appiah thereby goes to the Black Stars camp in the form of his life and would be expected to replicate his form by helping Ghana beat Sierra Leonen.
