Wa All Stars loanee Joseph Adjei stars for South African league leaders

Cape Town City FC’s Ghanaian import, Joseph Adjei, excelled for the PSL side as they opened up a four point lead at the top of the log.

The former Wa All Stars Centre back extended his fine form for the South African top flight newbies in a five goal thriller.

The 21-year-old imposing central defender guarded his shot stopper all day with an eagle eye and could do little to prevent the host from scoring twice in a goal mouth melee.

The former Ghana Youth International, who joined Cape Town City on a season long loan deal from Ghana Premier league champions, Wa All Stars FC, endured a slow start to life in the PSL but has since blossomed into a key pillar in the set up of the league leaders.

Initial cameo appearances for the newbies convinced the head coach of the side to hand Joseph a starting spot in the Telecom Knockout semis and he has since refused to go back to the bench.

A brace from Lebogang Manyama added to a solitary strike from Roland Putsch in a 2-3 away triumph for Cape Town City at the expense of Bidvest Wits.
