Match

Osman Asante leads the rout of BA All Stars

5‑0, and Osman Asante took the headlines on an afternoon when everything Hasaacas tried came off. Days like this are retold all winter.

Player ratings

Osman Asante scores twice — 9.92

Two goals and a mark of 9.92 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Player ratings

Francis Mohammed scores twice — 8.89

Two goals and a mark of 8.89 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Player ratings

Joseph Addo, 21, steals the show — 7.81

Marked 7.81 at 21, in a side that makes no allowances for age. He did not need any, and he looked the least nervous man on the pitch.

Market

Kamaldeen Owusu hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Hasaacas can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

A row about effort at Hasaacas

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Harrison Atiemo was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Joseph Addo

At 21 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Player ratings

Ninety minutes of Nana Wakaso at his very best

Marked 8.35. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Hasaacas.

Loan watch

Daniel Partey counts the days

“I watch every Hasaacas game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at Inter Allies runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.

In brief

  • The dugout The manager’s verdict
  • Squad Nana Wakaso finally opens his account
  • Squad Osman Asante named player of the week

Market

Francis Mohammed puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Hasaacas, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad

Samuel Asamoah breaks a bone — 18 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 18 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Boardroom

Window shuts: 2 in, 4 out at Hasaacas

The deadline has passed and the squad is the squad. 2 arrived, 4 left, and everything else printed about this club last month was a rumour that stayed one.

Boardroom

1 academy graduates step up at Hasaacas

Senior shirt numbers handed to boys the coaches have known since they were twelve. Most will not make it and all of them have already done the hard part.

Transfer targets

Hasaacas rebuffed over Osman Mensah

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Wa All Stars have kept their man, and Hasaacas go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Squad

A row about effort at Hasaacas

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Harrison Atiemo was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Squad

A falling-out at Hasaacas

Christian Djiku and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Market

One of our own: Patrick Addo joins the Hasaacas first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Patrick Addo is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Boardroom

Hasaacas say no to the training-ground money

The plan went upstairs and came back down. Nothing about that will make a headline anywhere else, and everybody who works at the training ground will remember it for years.

Market

Joseph Addo hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Hasaacas can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

Samuel Asamoah breaks a bone — 25 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 25 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Transfer targets

Ibrahim Nurudeen is a medical away from Hasaacas

The deal with Medeama is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Transfer targets

Kakamega Homeboyz tell Hasaacas: Josephat Lopaga is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Squad

Words exchanged at Hasaacas

Christian Djiku and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Market

Elect Sport join the queue for Abraham Kyereh

Add another name to the list: Elect Sport have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Abraham Kyereh. The answer from Hasaacas has not changed — yet.

The dugout

Francis Mohammed gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Market

Abdul Adjei placed on the list

Hasaacas have made Abdul Adjei available for transfer. A career at this club is over in all but paperwork.

Squad

Osman Asante is not doing himself any favours

A manager forgives a bad Saturday far more readily than a bad Tuesday, because one of them he can explain and the other one he chose. The reports this week have not been good.

In brief
