Player ratings

Nana Acquah scores twice — 8.12

Two goals and a mark of 8.12 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Player ratings

Age has not caught Torric Jebrin yet — 8.03

At 36 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 8.03 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Squad

Tempers go at Hasaacas

Christian Ayew 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.

Match

Nana Acquah among the goals in a wild afternoon

6 goals in one match, Nana Acquah on the scoresheet, and a scoreline that will look like a misprint. Neutrals could not have asked more of Hasaacas and Aduana Stars.

Match

Hasaacas see off Aduana Stars

Three points for Hasaacas, 4‑2 the final word against Aduana Stars in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Squad

Nana Acquah 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.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Yaw Mensah

At 22 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

Yaw Mensah in the eights

A performance of 8.58 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Daniel Boateng

“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.

Squad

Baba Asante damages knee ligaments — 43 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 43 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Match

Nana Acquah leads the rout of BA All Stars

3‑0, and Nana Acquah took the headlines on an afternoon when everything Hasaacas tried came off. Days like this are retold all winter.

Player ratings

A brace, and Nana Acquah takes the afternoon — 8.11

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Nana Acquah provided it, and the 8.11 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Market

Edmund Nuhu asks to leave Hasaacas

“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.

Squad

Tempers go at Hasaacas

Christian Ayew 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.

Boardroom

4 academy players handed senior numbers at Hasaacas

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Yaw Mensah

At 22 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.

Market

Nana Kyereh steps up from the Hasaacas academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Nana Kyereh has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Market

Amos Adjei steps up from the Hasaacas academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Amos Adjei has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.
