The Gas are losing all their hero. In the past Ghana football was dominated by Gas with both players and coaches but now it’s like they don’t exist anymore . Even in the Accra teams you cannot find Ga players on the teams ...

I think there is a misreporting here
In 178 when Ghana won the Africa Nation Cups staged in Ghana-
Kwasi Owusu- Tano Bofoakwa was captain. Razak took over the captaincy because of injury to Kwasi. I don't think Awuley Quaye ...

May your soul rest in peace the LEGEND Awuley Quaye
My condolece to the AGOSU family
Rest in Perfect Peace, mate. Thanks for the sweet memories.
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!
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.
There used to be an art painting of him with Razak and Polo somewhere around the then Race Course end of the Accra Spo ...

Sorry,.....with third team Nigeria I meant to say, and not "runners-up" as Uganda was rather the runners-up.
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
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.
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
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.
I now realise his days were before my birth. May he RIP.
What a great man he was..
Rest In peace big brother
