Squad30 Nov 2026

A fracture rules Afriyie Wakaso out for 93 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason WAFA will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Match28 Nov 2026

No end in sight to WAFA's wait for a win

4 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at WAFA has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad30 Nov 2026

Words exchanged at WAFA

Ridwan Popoola 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.

Match28 Nov 2026

Inter Allies take the points off WAFA

Beaten 0‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Squad30 Nov 2026

A row about effort at WAFA

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

The dugout30 Nov 2026

The manager makes an example of Emmanuel Boakye

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

The dugout30 Nov 2026

The view from the dugout

“We will look at it, we will learn from it, and we go again.” The three sentences every manager keeps for a 0‑2 defeat, delivered by Gladson Wakaso to a room that had heard them before.

Nobody could get near Daniel Atiemo

Successful dribbles: 11. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

The dugout30 Nov 2026

Nurudeen Abdulai has been promised minutes

A conversation in the manager’s office, and a commitment that came out of it. Promises like that are cheap to make and expensive to break, and Nurudeen Abdulai has written the date down.

Squad2 Nov 2026

123 days out for Afriyie Wakaso after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. WAFA will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Squad2 Nov 2026

A one-man rearguard from Emmanuel Boakye

There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Match31 Oct 2026

WAFA come up short against Liberty Professionals

Liberty Professionals left with the points after a 1‑3 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

No hiding place for Emmanuel Boakye

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Emmanuel Boakye, and the manager let it.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

Gladson Wakaso faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Gladson Wakaso after 1‑3, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Tempers go at WAFA

Yaw Asante was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Ridwan Popoola makes the team of the month

Four or five weekends of consistency, measured against everybody else in the division. A quieter compliment than an award and a more reliable one.

Player ratings2 Nov 2026

Jonathan Waris was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 11. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Player ratings2 Nov 2026

Daniel Atiemo wins it from the bench

Not in the side at kick-off and the story of it by the end. WAFA were going nowhere until he came on, and half an hour was all he needed.

Player ratings21 Sep 2026

A debut Ernest Appiah will not forget — 7.39

There is exactly one of these per career and it does not usually go like this. 1 on the scoresheet, 7.39 beside the name, and a crowd that had never seen him before chanting it by the end.

Match19 Sep 2026

WAFA come up short against Medeama

Medeama left with the points after a 1‑3 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

The dugout21 Sep 2026

Gladson Wakaso: “No excuses”

“I could talk about decisions and I could talk about luck. I will not. We lost.” The manager, 1‑3, and a press conference that lasted four minutes.

Squad21 Sep 2026

Words exchanged at WAFA

Emmanuel Boakye 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.

Player ratings21 Sep 2026

A costly moment from Daniel Atiemo

One lapse, one goal, and ninety minutes of honest work counting for nothing. That is the job at WAFA, and it is a cruel one.

The dugout21 Sep 2026

No hiding place for Emmanuel Boakye

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Emmanuel Boakye, and the manager let it.

Player ratings21 Sep 2026

Joseph Nuhu ran the game

Chances created: 9. Not on the scoresheet and not remotely anonymous — a passing performance that pulled a defence apart without leaving a mark on the column that gets read.

The dugout21 Sep 2026

Daniel Atiemo is still being punished for one mistake

Nobody will confirm it and the team sheets confirm it every week. One error has bought him a spell as second choice that is already longer than the error deserved.

Player ratings21 Sep 2026

Afriyie Wakaso leaves them behind him

Shots: 9. Goals: none. The chances were there and they were good ones, and they went into the stand, the goalkeeper's arms and the side netting in roughly that order.
