Nobody could get near Jeffrey Gyan
Successful dribbles: 38. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Abdul Atiemo leads the rout of Aduana Stars
3‑0, and Abdul Atiemo took the headlines on an afternoon when everything Wa All Stars tried came off. Days like this are retold all winter.

Abdul Atiemo scores twice — 8.32
Two goals and a mark of 8.32 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

No sign of nerves from Tauzy at 20 — 7.88
The hardest thing about being 20 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Tauzy did not need any: 7.88, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Joseph Mensah is in the form of his life
A season average of 7.26 with 13 goals behind it. Opponents have started planning around him, which is the sincerest compliment football pays.

A muscle injury sidelines Baba Asante for 14 days
Nobody makes a documentary about a hamstring and everybody in the game fears one. Wa All Stars will be careful with the return date, because the second one is always worse than the first.
