Market

Nana Inusah asks to leave WAFA

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Player ratings

Andre Asante, 34, rolls back the years — 8.33

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 8.33 at 34, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Player ratings

Jonathan Paintsil runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 24. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match

At last: WAFA win one

6 matches without a win, and then this, against Bechem United. Relief is a strange noise in a football ground and it was the only noise at the end.

Squad

Andre Asante signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Andre Asante commits to WAFA for another 3 years.

Squad

Nana Inusah falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match

Andre Asante the difference as WAFA beat Bechem United

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Andre Asante. 2‑1 against Bechem United, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Squad

Words exchanged at WAFA

a squad player 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.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Abdul Mensah

At 23 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.

In brief

  • Squad Baba Sulemana slips down the pecking order
  • The dugout The manager’s verdict
  • The dugout Edmund Owusu gets it from the manager
